I have been attempting to install this application for a few weeks without any success. I have installed and uninstalled the application and pathes with no change. I have even tried to load a VM in Virtualbox and install the application there to a base install of Ubuntu 12.10 and it still did not install. I have downloaded the patch and modified it to reflect the version of VMware Worstation and Player I am installing. I still receive the same error I saw in the first attempt to install the software. Which leads me to think that I am missing something. The error is:

Unable to start services.

See log file /tmp/vmware-root/modconfig-7674.log for details.

I have the output of the log file if that will help.

According to the dialogue box Virtual Network Device and VMware Blocking Filesystem fail to either load or execute.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
