VMplayer kernel issue(my solution)
Hey guys, I noticed @ dec-2015 people are still having issues on another post. (Don't want to GD)
I was looking around google and having issues finding it. I am posting my solution.
This solution worked for me:
Downloaded:
VMware-Player-12.1.0-3272444.x86_64.bundle
Code:
uname -a
Linux kali 4.0.0-kali1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.0.4-1+kali2 (2015-06-03) x86_64 GNU/Linux
Code:
apt-get install linux-headers-4.0.0-kali1-all-amd64
The result:

Afterwards, I was able to get on vmplayer just fine with no issues.
Hopefully, this helped. Cheers.
