When I try to "Enable virtual machine sharing and remote access" in Vmware Workstation the box unchecks after a second and nothing happens. I log files I find: /var/log/messages: Aug 22 10:04:01 xxx kernel: vmware-gksu[16329]: segfault at 7fa4d937b0ea ip 00007fa4dcc9bec6 sp 00007fff82bd9148 error 4 in libc-2.17.so[7fa4dcb70000+1a2000] Aug 22 10:05:15 xxx kernel: vmware-gksu[16477]: segfault at 7fd7a9c070ea ip 00007fd7ad527ec6 sp 00007fff48f38198 error 4 in libc-2.17.so[7fd7ad3fc000+1a2000] /tmp/vmware-d/vmware-apploader-16473.log: 2013-08-22T10:05:15.070+01:00| appLoader| I120: -- Finished processing libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 -- 2013-08-22T10:05:15.070+01:00| appLoader| I120: -- Processing libglib-2.0.so.0 -- 2013-08-22T10:05:15.070+01:00| appLoader| I120: GLib: glib_major_version: Comparing 2 with 2 2013-08-22T10:05:15.070+01:00| appLoader| I120: GLib: glib_minor_version: Comparing 36 with 36 2013-08-22T10:05:15.070+01:00| appLoader| I120: libglib-2.0.so.0 validator returned true. 2013-08-22T10:05:15.070+01:00| appLoader| I120: Marking libglib-2.0.so.0 node as SYSTEM. 2013-08-22T10:05:15.070+01:00| appLoader| I120: -- Finished processing libglib-2.0.so.0 -- 2013-08-22T10:05:15.091+01:00| appLoader| W110: Child process was terminated with signal 11. 2013-08-22T10:05:15.091+01:00| appLoader| W110: Unable to load dependencies for /opt/vmware/lib/vmware/lib/libvmware-gksu.so/libvmware-gksu.so 2013-08-22T10:05:15.091+01:00| appLoader| W110: Unable to execute /opt/vmware/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-gksu Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

Do you still have this problem? If yes, what's your current version of Workstation and libc?
