For some reason, vmware seems to be hooked into the kernel. (Poor
design, IMO.)

You have to re-run the setup.  If you watch your comand line screen
while booting, you'll see the vmware failed message along with what
you need to do. I believe you need to run vmware-install.pl from
whereever vmware is located. ??
