I've installed ubuntu groovy in a VMware machine without selecting the easy install mode, and without requesting to install drivers automatically during setup.
Once logged in, I tried to install the vmware drivers from software updates, but this is not enabled:

If I launch `sudo ubuntu-drivers install` from a terminal, the drivers gets correctly installed (and working) instead:
