Fedora 7.0 下VMware 安装出错解决方案

VMware在Fedora7下安装之后，配置会发生失败的情况，如果你的情况和作者类似，请看看这篇文章；

下载

下载安装的RPM包——VMware-workstation-5.5.3-34685.i386.rpm；

安装

运行下面命令安装——

#rpm -ivh VMware-workstation-5.5.3-34685.i386.rpm

配置

安装成功后，进行配置，运行：

#vmware-config.pl
Using 2.6.x kernel build system.
make: Entering directory `/tmp/vmware-config1/vmmon-only'
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.21-1.3194.fc7/build/include/.. SUBDIRS=$PWD SRCROOT=$PWD/. modules

配置出现错误，我这里给出补丁包，去下面

http://download.csdn.net/source/219357

下载

vmmon.tar

用这个tar替换掉/usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmmon.tar文件即可；

运行#vmware-config.pl可配置成功了！

此补丁包在Fedora 7RC2下运行通过；估计Fedora 7 and 6也没问题；
