Hello Joe, and thanks for the info.

The result:

# depmod -a
lajka3:~ # modprobe vmnet
lajka3:~ # /etc/init.d/vmware start
VMware Workstation is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured
for the running kernel. To (re-)configure it, invoke the
following command: /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl.

lajka3:~ # lsmod | grep vmnet
vmnet                  45484  12


I tried to run the vmware-config.pl, but had no success with it !

# vmware-config.pl
