vmware error after reboot

[rd1381]

hi
i installe dvmware VMware-Workstation-6.5.1-126130.x86_64[1] bundle after disabling kvm and the removed the modlues binery folder as said in this forum tutorial and it wnet fine

but next time i rebooted and run vmware it loads fine but when powering up a guest os it says "unable to find vmmont module" or something like this

for solving this i have to uninstall and install vmware again.but after next reboot it gives the same error again.

any ideas?

the exact error is

Could not open /dev/vmmon: No such file or directory. Please make sure that the kernel module `vmmon' is loaded

i have to run as root this command to fix it every time

vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

but why?
it there a way to fix this?\

I'm having the same problem. Really would like to know what's wrong maybe something in /etc/init.rd(./vmware status); maybe i need to add vmware services to init.rd. Anyway using this script for now instead of re-installing:

#!/bin/bash
modprobe vmmon
modprobe vmnet
modprobe vmblock
modprobe vmci
modprobe vsock
modprobe vsock
vmware-networks --start

it seems it got fixed
i think executing "vmware-modconfig --console --install-all" as root , after successfully running a vm, fixed it

To solve the problem... do the following.

Close down VMWare host´s, and shut down VMWare.

Change in the file: /etc/rc.local

Command: sudo nano /etc/rc.local

Add line /etc/init.d/vmware start &

Save with Ctrl + O

Sudo reboot
