I installed vmware workstation, but when I opened it, I get a pop up about initializing kernel modules. I was going to purge it in favor of VMware Player, but can not figure out the package name to remove vmware workstation. I tried "dpkg -l|grep 'vmware'" but I only found a video driver for vmware. Any suggestions?
