Hey this is The CODING Selenator!
I'm having a problem running VMware Workstation for the first time!
I ran 'sh VMware-Workstation-Full-9.0.1-894247.x86_64.bundle' and it ran and installed with no errors.
But I ran 'vmware' for the first time and I got a message that says "Unable to start services. See log file /tmp/vmware-root/vmware-modconfig-3101.log for details."
This is the contents of /tmp/vmware-root/vmware-modconfig-3101.log

Can you please help me with these problems with VMware?
Thanks,

Please use code tags when pasting to the boards.
Not an Installation issue, moving to Newbie Corner...
