 +Getting this error:
 +<code>
 +/tmp/vmware-config0/vmnet-only/bridge.c:35:8: error: "defined" cannot be used as a macro name
 +</code>
  
 +To fix do the following.
 +
 +Download this version of vmware-any-any:
 +{{:howtos:vmware-any-any-update-116-bridge-wireless.tgz|:howtos:vmware-any-any-update-116-bridge-wireless.tgz}}
 +
 +Unpack and run sudo runme.pl.
 +
 +Hack the bridge.c file inside the vmnet.tar file: (remember to be root or sudo)
 +
 +<code>
 +tar -xf vmnet.tar
 +vi vmnet-only/bridge.c
 +Changed #ifdef to #if
 +mv vmnet.tar vmnet.tar.orig
 +tar -cf vmnet.tar vmnet-only
 +</code>
 +
 +Run vmware-config.pl and after a lot of noise you should have compiled the tools and be ready to start Vmware Workstation.
