Heal VMware Workstation 7.1.4 on BT5

**Baligh.Bedewi** · 08-09-2011, 10:30

إخواني عرب هاردويير السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته...
أنا عندي مشكلة بقالي أكتر من يومين وبتمنى من الله تعالى ثم منكم ان اجد حلا..
أنا شغال على (Backtrack 5 R1 kernel 2.6.39.4 KDE 4.5) based on (Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid)
حاولت تنزيل vmware workstation من الموقع الرئيسي وبعد ال Installing عند فتح البرنامج لأول مرة أتضح انه بيعمل Compile Module وهذه هى المشكلة لانه ما بيعمل ال Compile حتى توصلت إلى تحميل الباتش اللي بيخليه يعمل Compile من الموقع الرئيسي وعملت ال Compile للملفات الأتية
(vmci - vsock - vmnet - vmmon)

إذا كتبت أمر ال Compile وهو

كود:

 vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

كانت النتيجة

كود:

root@bt:~# vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

وإذا فتحت البرنامج يقوم بمحاولة ال Compile مع الفشل وترك ملف لوج

بصراحة انا مش عارف ايه المشكلة.. وبتمنى أني اشوف ليها حل عشان انا شغلي كله تقريبا على ال Virtual Network :ah42:

Mr.motaz_crespo, sorry fo the late response and Thanks very much for your appreciation, I do know VirtualBox but I already had configured VMware Labs on VMware. And el7amdllah figured it out, and I would like to share this with ArabHardware members

install VMware Workstation 7.1.4 on Kernel 2.6.39.4, tested on my Backtrack 5 R1 KDE based on (Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid)..

1- Install VMware Workstation 7.1.4 from vmware.com (DON'T RUN) VMware will not run until you compile 5 module

2- Google and download "vmware2.6.39fixed.patch" to compile the module manual (vmnet, vmmon, vmblock, vmci and vmsock)

3- Copy the 5 module from the VMware installed directory to /tmp, unrar, patch, re-rar and replace them back. Just follow step No.4

4- OPEN SHELL and follow the process

كود:

mkdir /tmp/vmware && cd /tmp/vmware
cp -R /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/ .
cd /tmp/vmware/source
for i in ./*.tar; do tar -xf $i; done
for i in ./*.tar; do mv $i $i.orginal; done
patch -t -f -p1 < vmware2.6.39fixed.patch
tar cf vmblock.tar vmblock-only
tar cf vmci.tar vmci-only
tar cf vmmon.tar vmmon-only
tar cf vmnet.tar vmnet-only
tar cf vsock.tar vsock-only
cp -vf *.tar /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/

5- Run VMware.. It'll compile and you're ready to GO

Best Regard
