1、先用新立德找所有能找到的含有关键字“vmware”的包，注意看看地下的注释，不要删错了，如果实在不确定先不要删。
2、由于错误提示是：
The following VMware kernel modules have been found on your system that were因此我们的主要任务是删掉vmmon vmblock vmnet这三个kernel modules。因此先将这几个文件删除：
not installed by the VMware Installer. Please remove them then run this
installer again.
vmmon
vmblock
vmnet
Execution aborted.
查找：
# find /lib/modules/ | grep vmmon找到的文件夹类似于：
/lib/modules/2.6.24-23-generic/misc/
这里面还有6个需要删除的modules 每个kernel module都是有两个分别以 ".o" 和 ".ko" 结尾的文件，删除这几个文件：
# rm /lib/modules/2.6.24-23-generic/misc/vm*这时由于我没有测试，应该就能重新安装VMware-player或者安装新的VMware虚拟机了。
如果还不可以或者需要完全卸载的话责需要找出所有的vmware文件：
# find / -name vmware一般一个文件夹里都含有几个vmware安装时生成的文件，或者一个vmware目录的上层有几个vm开头的文件。只要分别删除找到的文件就可以了。
由于还要学习，时间不多，就粗略写一下把，请触类旁通。
最后给出我刚删除了VP后安装VW的日志，希望那些想要完全删除VP的人能用的上(我第一次安装失败了，因为没有删除/tmp里面的几个vmware关联的文件夹)：
icnpunk:~/Desktop/vmware-distrib$ sudo ./vmware-install.pl

There is probably a slight difference in the kernel configuration between the
set of C header files you specified and your running kernel. You may want to
rebuild a kernel based on that directory, or specify another directory.
The vmblock module enables dragging or copying files from within a guest and
dropping or pasting them onto your host (guest to host drag and drop and file
copy/paste). The rest of the software provided by VMware Workstation is
designed to work independently of this feature (including host to guest drag
and drop and file copy/paste).
If you would like the guest to host drag and drop and file copy/paste features,
you can install the driver by running vmware-config.pl again after making sure
that gcc, binutils, make and the kernel sources for your running kernel are
installed on your machine. These packages are available on your distribution's
installation CD.
