I literally tried everything to run VMware on my Fedora 40 6.9.7 GNOME. After running the script it says it couldnt start vmware.service, but i can start vmware, once i want to start a VM it still says few modules are missing. Btw im using 17.5.2 Workstation Pro Bildschirmfoto vom 2024-07-07 17-59-51 Bildschirmfoto vom 2024-07-07 18-33-56

Guten Tag,

Try with branch tmp/workstation-17.5.2-k6.9.1

git clone https://github.com/nan0desu/vmware-host-modules -b tmp/workstation-17.5.2-k6.9.1 as explained for issue #259.

Worked for me on Fedora 39.

Regards,
