    Patches needed to build VMware (Player and Workstation) host modules against recent kernels

  • 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.

    VMware Workstation macOS

  • I needed to install an unlocker from GitHub to enable options in the main screen.

  • WorkOS
