How did you install it exactly, what command/package?
Anyway, follow this guide
Vmware workstation is in the aur. If you install that and then reboot everything should be installed automatically. I’ve been using it without issue for months
Can you give me a link to the package?
Just wondering if it is workstation player or pro and does it last forever if it is pro
Here’s the link
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vmware-workstation
but you can just open pamac/add remove software and search for vmware and install it.
Installing vmware workstation also installs vmware player and player continues to work after the trial of workstation ends
Sorry but need help I am getting the error
Could not open /dev/vmmon: No such file or directory.
Please make sure that the kernel module `vmmon’ is loaded.
When I try to start a VM
you can try and search in the forum for " /dev/vmmon "
i see ther are people with the same issue and various solutions proposed,
you might find there something for you.
Did you reboot after installing ? You need to reboot for the kernel module to be added to the kernel
