Ok,

it has been always a pain in the neck.. since ever.

Why vmware cannot put a clear message about what the vmware-install.pl is searching for (or the where log file is)????

 

My settings are:

  • $(uname -r)"=> 3.7.10-1.1-desktop
  • $(uname -m)"=> x86_64

 

Anyway I assume you have the following packages (please adjust for your config):

  • kernel-desktop-3.7.10-1.1.1.x86_64
  • kernel-desktop-devel-3.7.10-1.1.1.x86_64

 

You don't need anything else.

 

And be sure you don't have installed: libvmtools0, open-vm-tools, open-vm-tools-gui.

 

 

So please do this:

$> mkdir -p /lib/modules/3.7.10-1.1-desktop/build/include/linux

$> cp /usr/src/linux-3.7.10-1.1-obj/x86_64/desktop/include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h \

        /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include/linux

$> ./vmware-install.pl

reboot and now you should be fine.
