How to get VMware running in Ubunty Feisty Fawn 7.04.

  1. Install Linux header for your current kernel: sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r`
  2. Download these two files: vmmon.tar & vmnet.tar
  3. Move them to VMWare’s module folder: sudo mv vmmon.tar vmnet.tar /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/
  4. It’s also a good idea to change the owner of those files to root.root: sudo chown root.root /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/*tar
  5. Last but not least, rerun VMWare’s config file: sudo /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl

Shared Folders

On the site of VMware you'll find a nice how-to to configure shared folders.
