Vmware Workstation 12 Install Problem
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
Having a tough time here. I have installed kernel 4.6 for my machine and using gcc 6.1.1 - so vmware workstation 12 installs fine but will not run. Does not find compatible gcc version 5.3.1
So wondering if anyone has a way to get this to work with gcc 6.1.1 or how to install 5.3.1 just for Vmware?
Thanks,
SJ

I got the same issue and found a solution. But I never consider about my gcc version. This solution works fine on kernel 4.6.x. Need to change some c codes.
Actually this solution for fedora but works well on Ubuntu 16.04 kernel 4.6.x.x.
find following archives on /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
- vmmon.tar
- vmnet.tar
Before make any changes backup original archives.
- untar vmmon.rar and find /vmmon-only/linux/hostif.c file and change "get_user_pages" to "get_user_pages_remote"
- tar and replace original
- untar vmnet.tar and find /vmnet-only/userif.c file and change "get_user_pages" to "get_user_pages_remote"
- tar and replace original
then start vmware workstation.
