Re: [Bug 261735] Re: 8.04 upgrade breaks vmware server console
Did you rebuild the VMWare module after the kernel upgrade? You'll make no progress on this bug until you reproduce the problem. That's where you need to start. The error messages listed below are completely different from the error messages of not having a requisite kernel module.

Status in ÿÿia32-libsÿÿ source package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: ia32-libs After installing VMware-server-1.0.6-91891 and vmware-any-any-116 on an 8.04 system the VMware console will not work. Apparently VMware's distribution has issues with libx11-6. The symptoms include: # vmware /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_3.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2) /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6) /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_3.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2) /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware: /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6) On an i386 system this can be fixed by downgrading libx11-6: # lynx http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/libx11-6 (Note the gutsy, not hardy version) # dpkg -i libx11*deb If that does not work try patching the VMware-shipped libraries: # cd /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 mkdir bak ; mv * bak ; ln -s /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 . # cd /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0 mkdir bak ; mv * bak ; ln -s /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0.15.0 libpng12.so.0 However, on an x86_64 system this will cause a different problem: # vmware Locking assertion failure.

Was this an upgrade from before-8.04 to 8.04 or are you reporting that a recent upgrade has broken what was working on 8.04 previously? ** Changed in: ia32-libs (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- 8.04 upgrade breaks vmware server console https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261735 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Was this an upgrade from before-8.04 to 8.04 or are you reporting that a recent upgrade has broken what was working on 8.04 previously? In this particular case it was an upgrade from 7.10. The same bug(s), however, are present in both 8.X upgrades and new installs. -- 8.04 upgrade breaks vmware server console https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261735 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
