I had installed "VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.x86_64.bundle" in my Ubuntu 13.10. Today i Upgrade to Ubuntu 14.4 LTS. Now when I try to launch VMware player it shows a messagebox:

Before you can run vmware several modules mush be compiled, and loaded into the running kernel

I pressed "install" button. But gets error, it doesn't start.

So I tried to reinstall it by typing:

./VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.x86_64.bundle

Now it shows,

Extracting VMware Installer...done.
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "overlay-scrollbar": liboverlay-scrollbar.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "unity-gtk-module": libunity-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
