I have a laptop with Fedora Core 6 and it is set up such that when

When I wake it up by opening the lid all is fine until I start
VMware, as soon as I go to start a guest OS under VMware the X
server crashes and spawns back to its login prompt. It only does
this on the first occasion after a suspend or hibernate event.
Has anyone seen this? Is it a hardware bug, a FC bug, a VMware
bug, a guest OS bug, or just an annoyance I will have to tolerate
and remember about?
Hunt it down! Attach to the running process with gdb, crash it, and
get a backtrace to see where it died. Do it a few times to see if it
happens at the same spot.
