My grandson downloaded a trial copy of VMware for me from his Mac portable and put it on a flash drive which I have.
This 400 meg file is what I see when I look at the contents of the flash drive:
VMware-Workstation-Full-9.0.2-1031769.x86_64.txt
Can someone tell me how to use it assuming it is the right file? I also have a key to go with it but have not been
able to find any useful [to me] instructions
normally these are .bundle files which you simply execute with
"bash VMware-Workstation-Full-9.0.2-1031769.x86_64.bundle"
which starts a graphical installer
*how large* is this .txt file?
maybe someone renamed it, but extensions are pointless on Unix, so see above
Ok, after some Googling I managed to get the install script running from
/usr/bin/env.
Now it protests that some kernel modules need installing, so I click on
"Install" but nothing seems to happen.
I found a log with a lot of data, the last few lines are:

Don't know what to try next.
