Hi all,

Running workstation 17 on Archlinux with kernel 5.15.79 (LTS)

When launching an existing VM:

Could not connect 'Ethernet0' to virtual network '/dev/vmnet8'.
More information can be found in the vmware.log file.
Failed to connect virtual device 'Ethernet0'.

When I go to the "network settings" and remove then create '/dev/vmnet8', things go right...

Nothing about "vmnet" in the logs when greping "vmnet"
