you didn't install it in the path, you'll have to edit the shortcut in your menu to point to the above directory.

Would you like to skip networking setup and keep your old settings as they are?

vmware is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured
for this system. To (re-)configure it, invoke the following command:
/home/sargeaxa/WMware/vmware-config.pl.

This is starting to be funny >_<
