I just installed VMware Workstation Player 17.0 downloading from the website. I am using Kubuntu 22.10. When running the software, it says the following:

compiling ans installing following kernel modules

vmmon
vmnet

It fails to do so.

In the aplicacion log, there are some errors but I don't know what to do with them.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
