Hey guys,
I installed VMware Player on my Arch Linux installation. I managed to build the required kernel modules after applying patches. The program opens successfully, but after I try to run a virtual machine, it crashes without an error message.
Here's the VMware Player log:

Looks like there was something wrong with the VM. Created a new one and it works.
It is now safe to close this thread.
