vmware workstation pro 17 couldn't find linux headers 6.10.6

I have downloaded vmware workstation pro 17, i open and kernel module updater says i need headers 6.10.6-arch1-1.
Installed them from archive, set the location "/usr/lib/modules/6.10.6-arch1-1", and it says "C header files matching your running kernel were not found."

/usr/lib/modules/ is owned by linux 6.10.7.arch1-1

Re: vmware workstation pro 17 couldn't find linux headers 6.10.6

/usr/lib/modules/ is owned by linux 6.10.7.arch1-1
/usr/lib/modules/ is owned by linux-headers 6.10.6.arch1-1

What happens if you retry after performing a full system upgrade?

Re: vmware workstation pro 17 couldn't find linux headers 6.10.6

/usr/lib/modules/ is owned by linux 6.10.7.arch1-1
/usr/lib/modules/ is owned by linux-headers 6.10.6.arch1-1

What happens if you retry after performing a full system upgrade?

now it just says that before i run VMware, several modules (vmmon, vmnet) must be compiled yada yada, without "couldn't find linux-headers*version*"
it starts to install, but after a few seconds a message appears "Unable to install all modules. See log *location* for details. (Exit code 1)"

Re: vmware workstation pro 17 couldn't find linux headers 6.10.6

Have you tried using vmware-workstation?

if you're talking about the regular one, i didn't
although I did use pro on windows, everything was perfect
maybe I should try regular one. just tried boxes, and eyes tearing apart from the config. soul wants VMware network manager)

Re: vmware workstation pro 17 couldn't find linux headers 6.10.6

I am referring to the AUR package I linked to which has patches for at least linux 6.9.

Re: vmware workstation pro 17 couldn't find linux headers 6.10.6

The "regular" vmware workstation aka vmware player has been discontinued, vmware workstation pro is now free  for personal use and the only version available .
