Comment 27 for bug 195982

Just had the problem again and this time with the normal NV driver. I never switched to full screen VMware (always ran windowed). So I have reproduced the problem under similar circumstances others have reported. I still feel there is some interaction with the xorg as the nvidia driver consistently fails much sooner than the nv driver.

Once a failure occurs dialog boxes become highly unreliable and crashes (outside of VMware) become common.

I am now going back to the nvidia driver and disabling the vmware tools just to see if that might be an issue. Hopefully going back to nvidia driver will accelerate any issues I have. Any suggestions for further testing are encouraged.

Of course a VMware solution would be rather handy....
