Hi everyone, I have a problem with VMWare WorkStation 14 after updating Ubuntu kernel. My VMWare Workstation unables to start services after running VMWare Kernel Module Updater. I have tried googling some attemps to fix it. But It doesnt work! Such as: run vmware-modconfig --console --install-all, reinstall many times,...
(vmware-modconfig:20018): IBUS-WARNING **: The owner of /home/haniz/.config/ibus/bus is not root!
