Question 1 liboverlay-scrollbar.soAnd libunity-gtk-module.soThe problem of load failure.

The solution to this problem is very simple, we read the wrong information first. Here is Gtk-Message a message, the Gtk solution is sudo to use to run the installation program, the error will disappear. The cause is a permission issue.

Issue 2 Gtk-warning * *: Unable to find the theme engine in the module path: “murrine”

The cause of this error should not be installed gtk2-engines-murrine , then install it.

Issue 3 failed to load libcanberra-gtk-module.soThe problem

Look for this first libcanberra-gtk-module.so .

[email protected]:~/software$ locate libcanberra-gtk-module.so/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-3.0/modules/libcanberra-gtk-module.so

Found two, then which one to use? Regardless of it, two are added to the system's dynamic library load configuration.

• Create two files First:
  sudo touch /etc/ld.so.conf.d/gtk-2.0.conf
sudo touch /etc/ld.so.conf.d/gtk-3.0.conf
• Add .so the path to the two files.
  Use VIM to open and pay attention to permissions.
  sudo vim /etc/ld.so.conf.d/gtk-2.0.conf
  Then insert the previously searched path
  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/modules
  For another file, another path is added. I won't say it here. In fact, as long as this one is enough.
• ldconfigunder Reload, pay attention to permissions Oh.
  sudo ldconfig
• Re-runsudo ./VMware-Workstation-Full-11.1.2-2780323.x86_64.bundle

What if the problem is not on libcanberra-gtk-module.so the machine?
This is not easy, installation is.

sudo apt-get install libcanberra*

This command installs a lot of extra stuff. You should just install libcanberra0 , libcanberra-gtk-module and libcanberra-gtk3-module you can.
