#683 [main] Doc issue in file modules/ROOT/pages/vmware-what-is-it.adoc
Opened 4 months ago by bogardon. Modified 3 months ago

The code snippets for executing the bundle files are wrong:

$ sudo ./VMware-Player-x.y.z-nn.x86_64.bundle
$ sudo chmod +x ./VMware-Player-x.y.z-nn.x86_64.bundle
$ sudo ./VMware-Workstation-Full-x.y.z-nn.x86_64.bundle

should probably be:

$ sudo chmod +x ./VMware-Player-x.y.z-nn.x86_64.bundle
$ sudo ./VMware-Player-x.y.z-nn.x86_64.bundle

PR looks plausible to me, but I don't use Workstation or VM

@ankursinha please, could you check and serve the PR?

I don't use the VM shown here either, so I can't confirm the steps. If Zhou has used these steps and they work for them, it's probably find to merge the PR. (I'm not in the committers group, so I can't do that Peter---you or other committers will have to do that bit).

Hey,

Yeah the modified instructions work for me. By the way, if your machine has
secure boot, additional steps are necessary to get the kernel modules to
run:
