For starting up the installation, run a .bundle file (make sure that it has execute permissions):
./VMware-Workstation-Full-9.0.1-894247.x86_64.bundle (for x64 systems)
Proceed through the install wizard.
If you are running Fedora (or, I suspect, any other Linux system), you may encounter a trouble on first launching VMware workstation:
Before you can run Vmware, several modules must be compiled and loaded into the running kernel
Kernel Headers 3.4.0.-1.fc17.i686.PAE Kernel headers for version 3.4.0.-1.fc17.i686.PAE were not found. If you installed them in a non-default path you can specify the path below. Otherwise refer to your distribution's documentation for installation instructions and click refresh to search again in default locations.
What helped me on Fedora 17:
# yum install kernel-headers-`uname -r`
# yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
Not sure whether the following is a must but I guess it should be installed as well:
# yum -y install kernel-devel kernel-PAE-devel
