Re: VMWare Workstation not able to start

Hello

The instruction below worked for me.

Note : It helps if your working off a fresh installation.

#

# For info, I am on openSUSE Tumbleweed

# START

cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source

tar -xvf ./vmnet.tar

cd vmnet-only

make

cd ..

ls -l vmnet.o

# On an OpenSUSE Tumbleweed system use this driver path to install the vmnet module:

cp ./vmnet.o /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/misc/vmnet.ko

# other architectures try using this path

# cp vmnet.o /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/vmnet.ko

#

tar -xvf ./vmmon.tar

cd vmmon-only

make

cd ..

ls -l vmmon.o

# On an OpenSUSE Tumbleweed system use this driver path to install the vmmon module:

cp vmmon.o /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/misc/vmmon.ko

# other architectures try using this path

# cp vmmon.o /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/vmmon.ko

reboot

Hope this helps

Regards

James
