Fix: VMware Player crash on Ubuntu 13.04

Possible solution if the VMware Player crashes instead of installing the required kernel modules.

Another hint I google too often, that’s why I post it here. This is the scenario:

Problem

  1. Start VMware Player
  2. A popup opens and asks to install modules before VMware Player is able to run
  3. After clicking “install”, the application silently crashes

Solution [Source]

sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all
Afterwards, you can start the program as usual.
