Hi everyone, anyone found workaround on getting VMware player loaded
without problem ? I saw people posted on VMware community board and the
respond are less, so I try my luck posting here.
$ uname -a
Linux fedora26 4.12.8-300.fc26.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Aug 17 15:30:20 UTC 2017
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I already compiled the vmmon and vmnet library source successfully, copy
both *ko file to /lib/modules/<kernel version>/misc, ran depmod -a command
and reboot.
VMware still asking to locate and check GCC, a working workaround is to run
with "/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmplayer " command but when I loaded *vmdk into
VMware then I getting "Please make sure that the kernel module `vmmon’ is
loaded”"
Tried both latest VMplayer 7 and 12. I still gettting the same error. I
only have 2 kernel installed right now
$ rpm -q kernel
kernel-4.11.8-300.fc26.x86_64
kernel-4.12.8-300.fc26.x86_64
Tried with older kernel and still face the same error
