Good morning Mike, I didn’t try the manually configuration yet,but this morning I removed and installed again the VMware 6 and I seen this message: ` sh VMware-Player-6.0.3-1895310.i386.bundle Extracting VMware Installer...done. Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": libcanberra-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gnomebreakpad": libgnomebreakpad.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ` In any case the install procedure go ahead without other errors and finish successfully. Futhermore I have installed the kernel update so my SLED now running with the 3.0.101-0.40-pae version but still the modules aren’t loaded. How can I try to install all the modules via commad-line instead the GUI? ---

Hi Mike, I have tried to run your command “vmware-modconfig --console --install-all” and here is the output: `Stopping VMware services: VMware Authentication Daemon done VM communication interface socket family done Virtual machine communication interface done Virtual machine monitor done Blocking file system done Using 2.6.x kernel build system. make: Entering directory `/tmp/modconfig-cAAJUE/vmmon-only' /usr/bin/make -C /lib/modules/3.0.101-0.40-pae/build/include/..

See log for details. ` In the early lines I have seen this error: “make[3]: gcc: Command not found” Actually I didn’t have the gcc compiler , I had only the gcc43 compiler! So i installed the gcc, gcc-c++ packages and the installation finally work!!! : ) ---

[QUOTE=mauriB;24335] Actually I didn’t have the gcc compiler , I had only the gcc43 compiler! So i installed the gcc, gcc-c++ packages and the installation finally work!!! : )[/QUOTE] Curious. Earlier output you posted indicated that /usr/bin/gcc-4.3 had been found so I’d assumed that was being used. /usr/bin/gcc is in the gcc package. Also curious given that on a fresh install of SLED 11 SP3 I didn’t have to install the gcc package specifically, which indicates it should either be installed as a dependency of one of the three packages I did have to install I mentioned in earlier post, or by default. Oh well, glad you got it sorted. ---
