Yes, it does, but just about everything else was different. The part I really don't get is that the VM that works on my laptop, I zipped it up and sent it to @denbkh, it didn't work on his computer when as far as we can tell almost everything is the same.
@denbkh,
Do you have any other graphics adapters like Intel (I do, so it isn't necessarily a problem) or other maybe unusual hardware peripherals and drivers?

Hmm, no, I have only one GPU with official drivers.
I can try to run strace on LUbuntu with their version of open-vm-tools-desktop, maybe it can help. But for this I need a full command because LUbuntu does not have "startx" in $PATH

And I also can run strace on tinycore without open-vm-tools-desktop if you need that.

I don't know if it's an actual illegal instruction (compiled with wrong target, very unlikely) or trying to execute data (much more likely, and a bug). Try changing the first line of ~/.xsession to:
--- Code: ---LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose /usr/local/bin/Xorg -nolisten tcp -logverbose 7 -verbose 7 2>~/Xorg.0.err &
--- End code ---
Maybe we'll get something useful.
