Debian bullseye problem

Hello, I am using Debian bullseye (because my laptop is not compatible with the stable version of debian) and for several weeks, after correct operation, vmware workstation pro 15 no longer works.
It puts me as a message at launch "Before you can run VMware, several modules must be compiled and loaded into running kernel."
I click on "Install" and enter the root password and I have the following message: "Unable to install all modules. See log /tmp/vmware-util28/-vmware-111928.log for details. (Exit code1) "and in this log file I have this: https://pastebin.com/dFC7Z9Ab

I tried to uninstall and reinstall without success, it gives me this: https://pastebin.com/pvjpWniY

A rpiori it would come since the update of the kernel in 5.7 from what I was told but I am not sure.

What to do?

thank you for your comeback
