ok,,, so little joy.... followed you instructions..   No Joy Manually started vmware services: sudo /etc/init.d/vmware start Everything loaded--> VM started...  -- great joy... now,  what do i need to do so that vmware services start automatically?  I do not have a rc.d ?? systemctl vmware enable??? thank you, Bob  

same exact issue... In addition, when i try to run the sign-file, i am getting the following error:  sudo /usr/src/linux-5.14.21-150400.24.18-obj/x86_64/default/scripts/sign-file  sha256 ./MOK.priv ./MOK.der $(modinfo -n vmmon) modinfo: command not found [sudo] password for root:  Usage: scripts/sign-file [-dp] <hash algo> <key> <x509> <module> [<dest>]        scripts/sign-file -s <raw sig> <hash algo> <x509> <module> [<dest>] i am running suse 15.4 and vmplayer 16.2.4 I had it running with redhat 9 and kernel 5.14 (note: to get the patch to work, you have to modify the netif.c file under vmmnet).   Bob  

running 5.14, received the following when following your instructions: ’ with type ‘void(struct net_device *, const u8 *, size_t)’ {aka ‘void(struct net_device *, const unsigned char *, long unsigned int)’}  4639 | __dev_addr_set(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *addr, size_t len)       | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /opt/vmware/vmware-host-modules/vmnet-only/netif.c:95:13: error: redefinition of ‘dev_addr_set’    95 | static void dev_addr_set(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *addr)       |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~ In file included from /opt/vmware/vmware-host-modules/vmnet-only/netif.c:29: ./include/linux/netdevice.h:4644:20: note: previous definition of ‘dev_addr_set’ with type ‘void(struct net_device *, const u8 *)’ {aka ‘void(struct net_device *, const unsigned char *)’}  4644 | static inline void dev_addr_set(struct net_device *dev, const u8 *addr)       |                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~ make[3]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:271: /opt/vmware/vmware-host-modules/vmnet-only/netif.o] Error 1 make[2]: *** [Makefile:1862: /opt/vmware/vmware-host-modules/vmnet-only] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/kernels/5.14.0-70.17.1.el9_0.x86_64' make[1]: *** [Makefile:117: vmnet.ko] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/opt/vmware/vmware-host-modules/vmnet-only' make: *** [Makefile:21: vmnet-only] Error 2 [root@BobsLinux vmware-host-modules]#
