VMWare player - compilando módulos do servidor - Ubuntu 13.10

Question

Enquanto rodava o Ubuntu 13.04 sempre que o kernel Linux era atualizado, isso costumava deixar o player do vmware feliz:

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

Ontem atualizei para o Ubuntu 13.10 e eis que a solução acima não funciona mais:

Unable to install all modules.  See log for details.

Eu assumo por "Ver log" significa os arquivos em / tmp / vmware-root / * log

Answer 1

Veja esta resposta nos fóruns da vmware: link

Estou citando a resposta de Rainmaker52 aqui (Rainmaker52, espero que você esteja bem com isso):

  

Os patches para a estação de trabalho 9.0.2 também parecem se aplicar de forma limpa a 2013.   Somente a "interface de comunicação da máquina virtual" parece falhar na inicialização, mas a estação de trabalho do VMWare abre em OK e as VMs são executadas corretamente.

     

Iniciando os serviços do VMware:

     

Monitor de máquina virtual concluído
  Interface de comunicação da máquina virtual falhou
  Família de Soquetes da Interface de Comunicação da VM Concluída
  Bloqueando o sistema de arquivos concluído
  Virtual ethernet feito
  VMware Authentication Daemon concluído

Patches a serem aplicados:   Ao executar o kernel 3.10:

     

Para vmnet.tar: [Veja o tópico do fórum vinculado acima. Eu não tenho reputação suficiente para colocar mais links aqui]

     

Para vmblock.tar: [Veja o tópico do fórum vinculado acima. Eu não tenho reputação suficiente para colocar mais links aqui]

     

Ao executar o 3.11, aplique este patch extra: [Veja o tópico do fórum linkado acima. Eu não tenho reputação suficiente para colocar mais links aqui]

     

Para aplicar:

cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
tar -xf vmnet.tar
tar -xf vmblock.tar
cd vmnet-only
patch -p1 < ~/Downloads/procfs.patch
cd ../vmblock-only
patch -p1 < ~/Downloads/vmblock.3.10.patch
patch -p1 < ~/Downloads/vmblock.3.11.patch
cd ..
tar -cf vmblock.tar vmblock-only
tar -cf vmnet.tar vmnet-only
vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

  

Boa sorte.

Acabei de testar isso na minha máquina e funcionou.
