Hello,

I've the following environment:

host:

Win7 Prof 64-bit,
VMWare-workstation 7.1.3 build 324285,
NVIDIA driver

guest:

FreeBSD 8-CURRENT,
Xorg-7.4.1,
open-vm-tools-253958 (from FreeBSD' ports collection),
KDE applications

The problem is:

After some time (minutes, not hours) the CPU utilisation in the VM goes
to 100% and makes the VM unusable because of its slow reaction on key
and mouse events; even after stopping the VM the CPU utilisation in the
host system Win7 stays at high level, even after stopping the VMWare
itself; this is only true if the NVIDIA driver in Win7 is used, not with
the standard Microsoft VGA driver itself;

It's hard to say if this is a bug in Win7 or NVIDIA or VMWare or Xorg,
that's why I wanted at least to ask here if there are know issues or
some pointers;

Thanks in advance for any hint

        matthias
