Description Michael Wilmes 2005-09-27 15:52:51 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
After update from xorg v.45 -> v.49.2 vmware-console (GSX server client gui) aborts when starting a VM. The complete X-Server aborts without further interaction. KDM login screen appears again, all previous KDE session data is lost.

After downgrade to xorg v.45 everything works as expected.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-6.8.2-37.FC4.49.2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. update xorg to v.49.2
2. startup vmware-console
3. select VM and click on start VM
4. X-server immediately crashes
  

Actual Results:  X-server immediately crashes

Expected Results:  Selected VM screen should be displayed in vmware-console window.

Additional info:

excerpt from /var/log/messages:
