spectre (spectre3brad) wrote : Crash VMware Workstation 9 on Ubuntu 12.10 (Linux 3.5 Kernel)

Hi all,

and cast my cares on Ubuntu 4.12 with on a Vmware Workstation 9 and since the update of Ubuntu this weekend 12.10 more way to start my VM because it appears this error:

Unable to change virtual machine power state: Failed to power on '/ home / spectrum / vmware / Ubuntu 64-64-bit/Ubuntu bit.vmx'.
Transport (VMDB) error -14: Pipe connection has-been broken.
When I try to uninstall the error given here:

The VMware Installer Could not shut down all running virtual machines. If You Have ACE VMs open, please shut them down or suspend em now and press 'Retry' to continue.
No way to uninstall or overwrite it with a clean reinstall ...

How to proceed?

Thank you.

Bonjour a tous,

mon soucis et que jetait sous Ubuntu 12.04 avec dessus un Workstation 9 de Vmware et que depuis la mise a jour de Ubuntu ce week-end en 12.10 plus moyen de lancer mes VM car il s'affiche cette erreur:

Unable to change virtual machine power state: Failed to power on '/home/spectre/vmware/Ubuntu 64-bit/Ubuntu 64-bit.vmx'.
Transport (VMDB) error -14: Pipe connection has been broken.
Lorsque j'essai de desinstaller voici l'erreur donnée:

The VMware Installer could not shut down all running virtual machines. If you have ACE VMs open, please shut them down or suspend them now and press 'Retry' to continue.
Pas moyen de désinstaller correctement, ni écraser avec une réinstallation propre...

Comment procéder?

Merci.
