I have tried searching all over for a solution but have been unable to find one that works.
I am running CentOS 7 and am trying to install VMware Workstation 7. Whenever I try to start vmware it says that it cant find the needed kernel headers and asks me to browse for them. For every location I try it says "C header files matching your running kernel were not found".
I have installed the following:

Here is the output of 'uname -a':
Linux localhost.localdomain 3.10.0-123.6.3.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Aug 6 21:12:36 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
What is the correct directory that I am supposed to point the Kernel Module Updater to? Is there something else that I am missing?
