all! Just trying to install VMware Workstation 10 at Kali linux and get the following error:

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module": libcanberra-gtk-module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

where troubleshooting should be started?

As for the GTK errors re: canberra-gtk-module, they're innocuous. You may ignore them.

I got the same Gtk-message, but the installation seems to be still proceeding.
