Comment 4 Owen Taylor 2010-06-23 15:57:40 UTC 
This crash is occurring only with the VirtualBox 3D drivers, which are not part of the Fedora distribution, and seems to reflect a bug in those drivers. It should be reported to VirtualBox/Sun/Oracle. If someone does that, including a reference to the bug report in a comment here would be appreciated.
Comment 5 Noel Duffy 2010-06-26 06:17:32 UTC 
I posted a ticket at virtualbox.org regarding this issue.

I am now waiting to see if there is a response. I also posted to the VirtualBox forum but so far only one other person has reported a similar issue.
