    I had to fix a well known issue with running VMware on Linux - compiling your own kernel modules. This isnt much of a problem for seasoned users but for others it might be a deal breaker. This repo will save you hours of searching google.
  • Update breaks networking on vmware-player

    Ive found that I had to manually compile and install patched host modules from https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules in order for it to work.

    1 project | /r/pop_os | 18 Aug 2022
    I'm on the same boat - the current Kernel (5.19) doesn't support the VMware Workstation (same build as player) - I believe kernel 5.17 works. This git page has helped me out in the past https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules
