You cannot install the package provided by vmware.com. You have to use |
| 15 |
the Gentoo ebuild. With layman, add the "vmware" overlay and install |
| 16 |
vmware-workstation from there. Before you do that, make sure you |
| 17 |
cleaned your system from everything installed by the official vmware |
| 18 |
package. |
