install vmware player on Ubuntu 9.0.4


follow 8.0.4 doc from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Player

download the vmware installer file from http://www.vmware.com/download/player/download.html , (download the bundle version, not the rpm one) and run it as root using gksudo.)

You'll get a graphical installer that installs VMware player for you.
gksudo bash ./VMware-Player-2.5.2-156735.x86_64.bundle
If nothing appears, you may need to make the file executable. You can do so with this command: chmod +x ./VMware-Player-2.5.2-156735.x86_64.bundle



However, when gksudo bash ./VMware-Player-2.5.1-126130.i386.bundle
"Cannot install on a system with KVM enabled"

after I uninstall kvm , kvm-bin, virtualbox*

hmc@hmc-desktop:~$ lsmod |grep kvm
kvm_amd 40972 0
kvm 176624 1 kvm_amd
hmc@hmc-desktop:~$ rmmod kvm
ERROR: Module kvm is in use by kvm_amd
hmc@hmc-desktop:~$ rmmod kvm_amd
ERROR: Removing 'kvm_amd': Operation not permitted
hmc@hmc-desktop:~$ sudo rmmod kvm_amd
[sudo] password for hmc:
hmc@hmc-desktop:~$ sudo rmmod kvm_amd
[sudo] password for hmc:
hmc@hmc-desktop:~$ sudo rmmod kvm
hmc@hmc-desktop:~$ lsmod |grep kvm
hmc@hmc-desktop:~$ pwd
/home/hmc

Finally the GUI goes through.

Find the icon under /Applications/System Tools/vmware player, then open my previous windows XP image successfully!


after above steps, I can reinstall virtualbox again.

Google Earth5 crashes in Ubuntu9.0.4

If Google Earth opens, shows the splash screen, and then crashes, you’re probably experiencing a common issue. Running ~/google-earth/googleearth in a terminal will show this error:
./googleearth-bin: relocation error: /usr/lib/i686/cmov/libssl.so.0.9.8: symbol BIO_test_flags, version OPENSSL_0.9.8 not defined in file libcrypto.so.0.9.8 with link time reference To fix this, browse to the folder you installed Google Earth into. By default this will be google-earth in your home folder. Find the file libcrypto.so.0.9.8 and rename it to something else, like libcrypto.so.0.9.8.bak. Google Earth should now start correctly.
