Problem updating VMware Kernel Module after upgrade

[cool_thing76]

Hi,

Thank you for your great effort upgrading to Percise Pangolin.

I upgraded sucessfully but i have a problem running VMware Player after the upgrade. I get a message thats says:

Before you can run VMware, several modules must be compiled and loaded into the running kernel.

So I click install and it takes sometime while failing to install the virtual network devies module then gives an error message at the end saying:

Unable to start services.

See log file /tmp/vmware-root/modconfig-5201.log for details

Any ideas?

The source code for the modules requires some patches so that they'll compile with the 3.2 kernel.

Thank you so much. I applied the patch and now VMware player runs perfectly.
