vmware-modconfig , [AppLoader] GLib does not have GSettings support.

Hello All , I've seen that others have installed vmware player under slackware-15.0 .

While I trying to be a bit more adventurous using the -current branch , Which was just updated on this system today .

I've also grabbed mkubecek's vmware-host-modules for ws-17.0.2 , Which as you can see has had no effect on the Subject matter , which really wasn't meant to , as it is only patched vmmon & vmnet modules for 6.1 kernels .

Has anyone gotten past this ? Tia , JimL
