Hi there,

I had the same issue - the player wanted every time that the modules were compiled after program start.

VSOCK_CONFED = "no"

That helped me a lot.

Best wishes for 2011 !!!

Thanks for the info, this helped me compile the modules. The command to recompile modules is

'vmware-modconfig --console --install-all'

Thanks for the info. After upgrading ubuntu to 10.10, I was worried that vmware player wasn't compiling, but I was back up and running after a couple of minutes of reading this.

Thank you very much. It works for my Ubuntu 10.10

Your fix worked just great. I've just upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 and without your fix I would had no choice but to go back to an older version of Ubuntu just to have VM Player running.
Thank you for the great post.

Thank you!!! Fedora Core 14
