VMware player with Fedora 26 (kernel module not loaded)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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
