VMware is still slow at updating their software to support newer linux kernel releases. I'm still using [vmware modules for linux](https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules) on github. Download the branch corresponding to the version of vmware I'm currently using. I rewrote my module upgrade script to use these src files to build the modules.

```bash
	cd path/to/src
	make clean
	make
	sudo make install
	sudo systemctl restart vmware
```
