As Nikos mentioned, no problem.

I have Linux KVM also available here, so instead of migrating the VM to
virtualbox (and installing that) I could also migrate the VM to KVM and
get rid of VMware. Using the "player" was only kind of curiosity back
then and then staying with it for that one particular VM (back then I
had problems w/ specific USB-devices in KVM. Should be solved long ago)
