Re: Vmware workstations 10

I do not know much about this error because installation always worked fine for me ... Though, did you use the official installation package from the VMware website?

Also check if there is a file /opt/Vmware/vmware (look last line). If the file exists, check if it is marked as executable and if you have permissions.

Re: Vmware workstations 10

Then try re-installing the package. (of course as root)
Seems like a broken / incomplete installation.

I guess you've got a .bundle file for installing.

When you want to install, first change in to the directory where the package is located. then write

chmod +x name-of-file.bundle

. If that fails, try as sudo.

Then you type in

sudo ./name-of-file.bundle

.

Replace 'name-of-file' with the true name of your installer file wink

EDIT: just figured out that there is a vmware-workstation package in the AUR. Tried it out and works fine.
