For some reason vmplayer did not start anymore. It complained about the kernel modules. WTF? I did not change anything on the system, it has not been powered off, I did not install any updates, so…WTF!? I googled around and found in some forum that moving the binary directory from vmware’s lib-dir would do the trick. It did! Here’s what I did:
mv /usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary /usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary_old
depmod -a
vmplayer
And…voila! It works. Not sure why this happened tough.
