RE: RE: Re: [SLE] VMware Workstation 3.0
Erik, It failed! :^(. But, I think my problem is that the vmware modules get loaded twice on bootup. No problems with the first loading, but then fails on the second load with this message: insmod: a module named vm* already exists (for each module) VMware[init]: vmnet*: No such device (for each vmnet, 8 & 1 in my case) modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module vmnet* (for each vmnet) Any ideas where to look and how to get rid of the second loading?

Hi,
It removes the files completely. /usr/lib/modules/vmware/source is empty, as well as /usr/lib/vmware/modules/vmware-ws-1142-for-2.4.7a. Then I installed the rpm using -ivh and it put the files back in /usr/lib/vmware/source.
I'll reboot now to see what happens and get back to you.

Erik,
Hi.
I have SuSE 7.3 and had VMware Express and used Volker's HowTO. I upgraded to Workstation 3.0 and used Volker's HowTO. It worked well unitl I had to reboot and then it would not work not matter what. I deleted and reinstalled Wkstn 3.0 this time and DID NOT use Volker's HowTO. It is running fine, but I have not shutdown and rebooted yet. I guess you could go either way.
As you have used Volker's HowTo, the missing files and symbolic links are back even if you deleted and reinstalled.
Please try a reboot or a shutdown :-)
Would be interesting to know the result, and you do it for us :-)

Why does they get loaded twice ?. In such case I think I can imagine its wrong.
Any ideas where to look and how to get rid of the second loading?
Not at least Keith :-((
