Installing VMware Workstation

brenainn · 11-16-2017, 12:24 PM

I have been trying to install VMware workstation 14 on Opensuse Leap 42.3, and have been unable to build the modules. I am running kernel 4.14.0-1.gc6cd519-default, gcc 7.1, and all the necessary (I believe) headers and devel packages.
This is the output of vmware-modconfig --console --install-all:

[AppLoader] GLib does not have GSettings support.
Stopping VMware services:
VMware Authentication Daemon done
VM communication interface socket family done
Virtual machine communication interface done
Virtual machine monitor done

I've searched everywhere for a solution but came up empty. Any help with the problem would be greatly appreciated.

Did you install "make"?

brenainn · 11-17-2017, 03:34 PM

Yes, I have all development packages installed. Vmnet builds but vmmom fails.

DVOM · 11-17-2017, 03:56 PM

Have you tried a different kernel? I see that your OS originally comes with kernel 4.4.xx. Does that kernel work?

brenainn · 11-17-2017, 03:58 PM

No, I tried the stock kernel as well.

drmanuel · 12-07-2017, 01:56 AM

Hi, I've the same issue, how did you solve it?
Thanks in advance.
M.

Ziferius · 12-11-2017, 11:17 PM

git clone https://github.com/pavlinux/vmware-modules

tar each one up
copy tar files to /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source

vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

drmanuel · 12-12-2017, 02:08 AM

Great, it worked!
Thank you very much!
Bye.

nickk · 12-17-2017, 11:57 PM

Thanks Ziferius!

Worked flawlessly for me too.
