Help to get VmWare run!!
Hi I have problem to get work VmWare. I read some post and try these solutions, but I don't get to work it. I have AMD64 system and have ia32-libs package installed.

you would most likely need to run vmware in a proper chroot the other problem is kernel modules, im not sure if they work for 64bit kernels. Dean dclemen wrote: Hi I have problem to get work VmWare.

RE: Help to get VmWare run!!
I am running Linux saidin 2.6.14.3 #1 SMP Sat Dec 10 11:17:02 EST 2005 x86_64 GNU/Linux on an ASUS A8V-Deluxe+Wifi + AMD64 3800+ x2. I went through similar problems trying to get GSX 3.2 running. Here is my quick list of steps that got me working in case I have to do it again: . Get AnyAny update . install ia32-libs . install ia32 base Debian to /emul/ia32-linux (chroot location) using debootstrap . install GSX . update /etc/pam.d/vmware-authd to point to the /emul/ia32-linux libs directory (otherwise authentication via vmware-authd won't work) My main stumbling point was not using debootstrap to set up a full ia32 chroot (ie. ia32-libs is not enough). Once I had done this, compiling the vmware kernel modules and running vmware wasn't a problem. I followed the instructions in https://alioth.debian.org/docman/view.php/30192/21/debian-amd64-howto.html for running debootstrap.

Re: Help to get VmWare run!!
Hello, I have tried to compile it without any chroot at all. It does compile, and the kernel modules (vmmon and vmnet) do insert into the kernel without a problem. However, binaries are compiled for 32bits system and they will fail to launch miserably, looking for libpam0.so, which is not compiled in ia-32libs. If you try to merely install a 32 bits chroot and then add the lines to the ld.so.conf it will fail as well, because it seems some links to libraries are hard coded, i don't know why, it doesn't try to search for the libs in the ia-32 system... And the vmware binaries look for their libs in /lib. debian is hell as well, as all the 64 libs are actually in /lib and not /lib64. So there's a problem here. :/ I then made an ia-32 chroot, and tried to compile the vmware modules in there. Helplessly, it fails : the compiler says, when trying to compile the vmmon module : CC [M] /tmp/vmware-config1/vmmon-only/linux/driver.o cc1: error: code model `kernel' not supported in the 32 bit mode Too bad. Something to try would be to compile those modules within the 64bits system and then install them into the kernel modules root, then tamper the vmware-config.pl script in the ia32 chroot so that it skips trying to compile them. Since you can compile the modules within the 64bits system without a problem, that should be okay. You merely would need to copy the modules to the correct directory under the chroot, I guess. Or, simply bind /lib/modules to /path/to/ia32/chroot/lib/modules (which is what i did) And then, let the configuration process do its job. Perhaps it can work that way in the ia32 chroot. I'm lazy, so i didn't try it yet, but perhaps later i'll try, and if it works or does not work i'll report it in this thread.

RE: Help to get VmWare run!!
Hi, So you have got VMWare running, and the only problem now is authentication? I have not touched the chroot passwd or group files, since I am not *running* VMWare chroot'd - I believe in this case the chroot is only there so all the correct 32bit libraries are available to VMWare. Did you use the /etc/init.d/vmware script to start VMWare? Do you have any log entries to show? If it's only authentication that's a problem, can you post the relevant lines from /var/log/auth.log? -Original Message- From: Jean-Christophe Montigny [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 12 December 2005 10:13 PM To: Michael Dixon Cc: 'Dean Hamstead'; 'dclemen'; debian-amd64@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: Help to get VmWare run!!

Right. I am not running it chrooted either, but since running vmware has been kinda voodoo magic... :) Did you use the /etc/init.d/vmware script to start VMWare? Yes Do you have any log entries to show? If it's only authentication that's a problem, can you post the relevant lines from /var/log/auth.log? Yeah... Thanks for the pointer : that's it ! Well it seems that in spite of correcting /etc/vmware/pam.d/vmware-authd it was still looking for the former location of libraries. In fact I read your email the wrong way. There are two vmware-authd files for configuration, one /etc/vmware/pam.d/vmware-authd which i edited and served no purpose. The other in /etc/pam.d Finally i made a symlink from /etc/pam.d/vmware-authd to /etc/vmware/pam.d/vmware-authd and it works. Thanks a lot ! :) JC Montigny -Original Message- From: Jean-Christophe Montigny [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 12 December 2005 10:13 PM To: Michael Dixon Cc: 'Dean Hamstead'; 'dclemen'; debian-amd64@lists.debian.org Subject: Re: Help to get VmWare run!! Hello, You're a precious man ! I got it all, and updated my pam.d/vmware-authd file to point to the correct locations. However, now, vmware-authd runs without segfaulting, but tells me authentication errors. I modified the chrooted passwd and shadow files accordingly. Yet, with any of the accounts mentioned in the chrooted or real system tree, it fails :/ Michael Dixon wrote: I am running Linux saidin 2.6.14.3 #1 SMP Sat Dec 10 11:17:02 EST 2005 x86_64 GNU/Linux on an ASUS A8V-Deluxe+Wifi + AMD64 3800+ x2. I went through similar problems trying to get GSX 3.2 running. Here is my quick list of steps that got me working in case I have to do it again: . Get AnyAny update . install ia32-libs . install ia32 base Debian to /emul/ia32-linux (chroot location) using debootstrap . install GSX . update /etc/pam.d/vmware-authd to point to the /emul/ia32-linux libs directory (otherwise authentication via vmware-authd won't work) My main stumbling point was not using debootstrap to set up a full ia32 chroot (ie. ia32-libs is not enough). Once I had done this, compiling the vmware kernel modules and running vmware wasn't a problem. I followed the instructions in https://alioth.debian.org/docman/view.php/30192/21/debian-amd64-howto. html for running debootstrap.

Before running VMware for the first time after update, you need to configure it for your running kernel by invoking the following command: /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl.
