VMware Workstation 8.0.4/8.0.3 installed on fedora17/Ubuntu 12.04

Today, someone asked about the installation of VMware Workstation 8.0.4/8.0.3 in fedora17/Ubuntu 12.04.

Http://blog.csdn.net/luozhuang/article/details/7661895

In fact, the 8.0.2 script is General 8.0.4

Why is the report unavailable?

Sorry, this script is only for VMware Workstation 8.0.4 or VMWare Player 4.0.2. exiting

You need to modify the script version:

Open the patch-modules_3.4.0.sh in a text editor

The modified version is enough.

8.0.4 modify as follows:

#! /bin/bash# VMWare Workstation/Player _host kernel modules_ patcher v0.6.2 by ?010 Artem S. Tashkinov# Tailored and fixed vmblock patching for the 2.6.39 patch by Stefano Angeleri (weltall)# Use at your own risk.fpatch=vmware3.4.0.patchvmreqver=8.0.4plreqver=4.0.4

In addition, a great God provides his own solution script:

Open the terminal and enter:

The principle is to download the script

/usr/lib/vmware/modules

Then the installation is not mentioned.
