Alas, I don't know which Mint upgrade, or VMWare Player upgrade broke the functionality, or when. I've updated VMWare Tools in the guest OS, with no effect. Switch back to NAT, and everything reconnects and works fine.
Recently, I had need to switch to Bridged, and the guest Linux OS failed to connect. In the past (earlier versions of Linux Mint, and earlier versions of VMWare Player), I could switch networking between NAT and Bridged, and both would work as expected. Host hardware: ASUS Laptop with broadcomm wifi chipset.Please do not report bugs against vmware-player, or add bug tasks for vmware-player on current bug reports. While the package page for vmware-player in Launchpad does exist, no packages exist.
VMWare Player is currently not available via the Ubuntu repositories. You can improve performance by using the VMware/Tools on your guest OS. You can do so with this command: chmod +x VMware-Player-14.0.0-6661328.x86_64.bundle *If nothing appears, you may need to make the file executable. Open a terminal then run the package using gksudo: gksudo bash VMware-Player-14.0.0-6661328.x86_64.bundle Install build-essential: sudo apt install gcc build-essential -y A wide variety of appliances (both certified and other-wise) are available from VMware's Appliance Marketplace. An appliance can be created using certain VMware products, or you can download ready-made appliances.
Virtual machines configured with an operating system and applications ready to perform a specific function are called virtual appliances.
It can be downloaded for free from VMware. The host operating system runs the VMware Workstation Player, which provides the guest with resources like network access. To the guest operating system (the one running inside the virtual machine), it appears as though it were running on its own PC. VMware Workstation Player (formerly VMware Player) allows you to run entire operating systems in a virtual machine, which runs on top of Ubuntu or Windows.
