实验环境:Ubuntu 8.04

1、下载VMware Workstation 5.5.7 for Linux
http://www.vmware.com/download/ws/ws5.html

2、下载vmware-any-any-update115.tar.gz（好像vmware-any-any-update116.tar.gz好些）
http://www.vmware.com/support/reference/linux/prebuilt_modules_linux.html

3、进入vmware-any-any-update115.tar.gz解压后的目录vmware-any-any-update115，输入：
tar xvf vmmon.tar
rm vmmon.tar
gedit vmmon-only/include/vcpuset.h
将# #include "asm/bitops.h" 改为 #include "linux/bitops.h"
tar cvf vmmon.tar vmmon-only
rm -rf vmmon-only

4、进入VMware Workstation 5.5.7 for Linux解压后的目录vmware-distrib,输入
cp ~/vmware-any-any-update115/vmmon.tar ~/vmware-distrib/lib/modules/source/
cp ~/vmware-any-any-update115/vmnet.tar ~/vmware-distrib/lib/modules/source/
sudo ./vmware-install.pl

结束时会有一些提示信息，配置完成好像没什么影响。第三步不修改vcpuset.h的话会出现如下错误：

最后的步骤
　　如果你这时尝试去运行vmware，你可能会得到一些错误提示和你的抱怨，这时还有一件事需要我们去设置。（VMware，如果你看到这些，请在你的正式发行版中修复这些错误)

基本上，VMware的这些错误和那些抱怨，是关于一些cairo库和gcc，所以，用符号连接指向它们就可以修复它们，
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.2.3/libgcc_s.so /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libgcc_s.so.1/libgcc_s.so.1
sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/libpng12.so.0 /usr/lib/vmware/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0

删除libgcc_s.so.1好像也可以用。
