I don't know if it's a Tumbleweed Kernel problem or if it's due to VMware Hi Philou44 I am exactly in the same situation like you. But now with the Bonjour Philippe Enric. Open a terminal session and as your user cd to the download location of the rpm a work directory under your home directory is a good idea and run the following commands;.

Now you need to open a second terminal session and become root user and run the following commands;. In the previous terminal where you unpacked the rpm also become root user and install the bundle by running the following commands;.

For VMware-workstation install via the rpm command, so open a terminal session and run the following commands;. For VMware-server install via the rpm command, so open a terminal session and run the following commands;.

I found that running "vmplayer" directly will do that if necessary. But it will also then start the "player" running as root, which I dislike. I stop it that moment and start vmplayer again, this time as user. Didn't know what Unity was, thanks. It is good indeed. But still, vmware server was better, IMO.
