I created a fix for this, see #8 (Update to Python semver to properly identify kernel versions)

Checkout the branch
Delete folder ~/.miniforge3
Start the script as usual

Hello. I'm facing the same error message with my Debian testing system. Could you help me out?

$ uname -a
Linux EC44P6ZF2PL3 6.17.11+deb14-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.17.11-1 (2025-12-07) x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ ls -1 /lib/modules
6.17.11+deb14-amd64

[mmattel]

have you tried the fix I described above already?

[Kodar-le-dok]

Actually, I realised I was not on your updated branch. After doing

git switch update_to_semver

from within your forked repo (at https://github.com/mmattel/vmware-vmmon-vmnet-linux-6.17.x), then it indeed worked really fine! Thanks a lot.

Hopefully the maintainer here takes a look on, approves and merges it.
