.bundle - how do I install

[banditti]

I am trying to install a program that gives me .rpm option and a .bundle option. I tried alien on the .rpm, no luck.

what the heck is a .bundle and what do I do with it?

[banditti]

did a chmod +x and did a ./ and it worked.

Let me guess, you were trying to install vmware?

did a chmod +x and did a ./ and it worked.

Dont forget to send yourself a "thanks"!

Thanks a lot. You people saved my day. And yes. I am trying to install vmware player.

I was googling what the hell a .bundle is, and incidentally, I too am installing vmware player. Thanks!

What is a "./"?

What is a "./"?

It specifies that the file you want to run is in the current directory. Otherwise, it'll look for it in the path such as /usr/bin, etc.

Talk to me like i'm 5 years old.
I want to install .bundle too, but i just installed ubuntu for the first time so i don't know much can u tell what exactly i have to fill in.

Trying one of those:
VMware-Workstation-6.5.1-126130.x86_64.bundle
VMware-Player-2.5.2-156735.i386.bundle

I already tried the first one with alien out of .rpm what i got out of the .rpm is a .bundle

NEVERMIND figured out here's how:

sudo sh '/home/(username like /jacky)/Desktop/VMware-Player-2.5.2-156735.i386.bundle'

sudo sh '/home/(username like /jacky)/Desktop/VMware-Workstation-6.5.1-126130.x86_64.bundle

It's easier to just insert sudo sh and grab ur file and drag into the terminal and enter it.

It's maybe easy for some u guys but some poeple like me didn't knew this

And that's what i spend my whole free day on
