It looks like you are missing an essential package:
Then try again, it should work this time.
Edit:
Try these two addiitons, pls:
Edit 2:
Did you try to install the two packages above? Also, it says here that VMWare player 4 is only compatible with 64-bit architecture.
The libcanberra error is an old nuisance I had too, it can be solved by adding a symlink,
and then running (as sudo) ldconfig. Since you have a 32bit system, you should probably (you will have to check that this file exists, I do not have a 32 bit system to test this) symlink instead to

Thanks for help from all the guys, After some digging around around, I downloaded VMWare Player version 5.0.2 which worked flawlessly and without any kind of errors and warning.
Both the latest version 6.0 and the older one 2.5.5 didn't work and caused hell of dependency problems and errors.
So if you are running
kali-linux-1.0.5-i386
on 32bit system like me, I would recommend that you download version 5.0.2
of the player which should work without any problems.Ibrahim NajjarIbrahim Najjar
