I recently did a fresh install to 15.04. I downloaded and installed vmware player, but when I go to launch it, I receive a message saying "vmware workstation several modules must be compiled and loaded into the kernel."
I click install so that it can proceed, but then I get an error saying that it is "unable to start services."
Any ideas of how I can get it to work again?

This can be fixed by running the following steps as Root (in a terminal):
sudo -i

VMware will now compile the vmnet module for Kernel 3.19. (please make sure you have DKMS installed)
