vmware-workstation 10.0.1.1379776 only works with <=nvidia-drivers-325.15 I already testetd 10.0.1 with 325.11 from my local overlay on 3.12.6 (nvidia-drivers patched) and now it is working. With nvidia-drivers-331.20 no VM is powering on Reproducible: Always
Patched NVIDIA drivers are unsupported; this might be a duplicate of bug #487558, you can follow its progress and see if that fixes it for you.
I am running vmware-workstation-10.0.1.1379776 64 bit with nvidia-drivers-331.20 without issue. I run a window xp vm and a windows 7 vm
