Hi dear members,

Im trying to install vmware-worstation(14) , but when i will enter key licence like "sudo /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-enter-serial" .
I have the error below :

I have solved the probleme enter :
#xhost +local:root
And restarted the machine after adding Defaults env_keep=DISPLAY into /etc/sudoers

Seddik
