  1. Open a terminal (Ubuntu keyboard shortcut Ctrl-Alt+T).
  2. Change directory where the bundle installation file was saved. cd dir.
  3. Substituting the file name, type the following command: sudo sh VMware-Workstation-xxxx-xxxx.architecture.bundle.

  1. You need to change permission of the file to make it executable: chmod a+x VMware-Player-6.0.3-1895310.x86_64.bundle.
  2. Start the file. You will most probably need root privileges to install VMWare, but that is not always the case. So in this case: sudo ./VMware-Player-6.0.3-1895310.x86_64.bundle.
