Active VMware machine images would fill your TimeMachine disk space in about an hour or two!īTW, my fix also works on kernel version 15.2, as of yesterday.
OPENSUSE TUMBLEWEED VMWARE WORKSTATION PLAYER 12 INSTALL
It will install just fine, but when VMware starts, it needs to compile and install some kernel modules, which fails for kernel versions 5.1 and later, i.e. I certainly learned THAT when installing VMware Fusion on a Mac. Summary The latest version of VMware Player (VMware-Player-15.1.) as downloaded from the VMware web site, does not work on TW. That way, they wander with me from machine to machine, together with my own personal files, desktop configuration. download the lastest vmware workstation 7.1.3 (the patch is only for this version) download the patch vmware-7.1.3-2.6.37-rc5.patch download the script to patch patch-modulesv62-opensuse.sh. Now then, Windows 7 and openSuSE 12.2 seem to be working together like we haven't experienced since our SuSE 7.3 and Windows XP days. TSUI am storing all Virtual Machines under a directory called /home/VMware. In fact, at this moment we are editing this file, which is on the Laptop, via Homesite, from within Windows 2000, via VMware 8, from with openSuSE 12.2 RC1. I reset to a subdirectory of /usr/local/ based on the information from the SDB BTRFS.
You don't want to roll back your HostOS one day and revert all your Guests as well.įor example in my Workstation testing, the install asks where to store shared machine images. Hello :-) I am trying to install VMPlayer on my OpenSuse 12.2 I run the VMware-Player-5.0.0xxxx.bundle without problems After that, I try to run VMPlayer but i get the next error: Gtk-Message: Failed to load module 'canberra-gtk-module': libcanberra-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: N. Perhaps the very first thing you need to do before you create a virtual machine is to verify your machine images are stored in a location that is excluded from snapshots.
A reminder to anyone installing VMware Player or Workstation on a machine with BTRFS installed.
