Failed to rebuild kernel modules after upgrade to 3.17 vmware

matman · 2014-11-12 18:41:53

I've been using vmplayer for some time, with no problem, up to the upgrade to 3.17 kernel.

Previously I installed DKMS, but I never manually executed the rebuild command, because so far every kernel upgrade VMware Kernel Module Updater did its job with no problem. (Although I am not sure If there's any relation between those two tools.)

After I upgraded to 3.17 I am not able to start player due to failed kernel modules rebuild. That's the vmware log :

Sorry for the long one, and non English bits (not relevant though) .

After that failed, I tried DKMS

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.17.2-1-ARCH (x86_64)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/vmware-modules/10/build/make.log for more information.

The log :

I obviously tried to google solution/workaround, but everything seems to point to much older kernel versions.
I would appreciate greatly any hints/answers.
Cheers

#EDIT

I forgot to add, that I have Intel CPU. I installed microcode and It's in my bootloader conf (also dmseg gives output confirming it's loaded).

Make sure you have all the dependencies:
pacman -S fuse gtkmm linux-headers

You will also have to patch vmware for 3.17 kernels, if you heaven't done it already

Same for me but I use the kernel 3.17.4 and Vmware 11. Everything seems fine but when I try to install dkms modules crash:
