Hello,
I tried installing vmware workstation player on opensuse leap 42.1 with xfce.
I downloaded the bundle VMware-Player-12.5.1-4542065.x86_64.bundle
from http://www.vmware.com/products/player/playerpro-evaluation.html
Than changed the properties of the by right-clicking the file and choosing “allow this file to run as program”.
Next, form the downloads folder, in terminal I ran:
sudo sh ./VMware-Player-12.5.1-4542065.x86_64.bundle
The installation process seemed to work.
An vmware player icon shortcut appeared in the system menu.
When clicking the new shortcut icon I got a message:
Kernel Headers 4.1.27-27-default
Kernel headers for version 4.1.27-27-default were not found. if you installed them in non-default path you can specify the path below. Otherwse refer to your distribution documentation …

Now I saw a similar message in the guide
http://www.tecmint.com/install-vmware-workstation-in-linux/
But there were only instructions for Redhat and Debian, not for opensuse.
So How to proceed with the installation of vmware?
Best regards,
Eli
