Workstation Pro 16 on Ubuntu 20.10 ?

I installed Workstation Pro 16 on a Pop!_OS 20.10 host and it seems to be working fine with both Win7 & Win10 guest machines.

If it works on a Pop!_OS 20.10 host, can I assume it will also work with an Ubuntu 20.10 host?

Has anyone used Workstation Pro 16 on an Ubuntu 20.10 host?

No !
everything can happen with such exotic OS-versions - I find every Ubuntu release after 14 a bit obscure ...

Don't feel as strongly as Uli but I switched to LMDE some time back. Edition of Mint based on Debian, not Ubuntu. I am running 16 with no problems.
