If you are about "Hardware > Processor > Virtualization engine" than I tried with "Disable acceleration for binary translation" - same error. With other two checkboxes VM does not boot.

Hi denbkh

Is it possible to find which instruction is "illegal"? And which component contains it?

Based on the address reported here:

--- Code: ---[   141.840] (EE) Illegal instruction at address 0xb4fc54a3
--- End code ---
I would say this is the most likely suspect:

--- Code: ---[   141.840] (EE) 3: /usr/local/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so (0xb4c8b000+0x1ee0ba) [0xb4e790ba]
[   141.840] (EE) 4: /usr/local/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so (0xb4c8b000+0x1ee419) [0xb4e79419]
[   141.840] (EE) 5: /usr/local/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so (0xb4c8b000+0x1ee9ce) [0xb4e799ce]
[   141.840] (EE) 6: /usr/local/lib/dri/swrast_dri.so (0xb4c8b000+0x1eeaf4) [0xb4e79af4]
--- End code ---
and is provided by  Xorg-7.7-3d.tcz.

That eliminates open-vm-tools and open-vm-tools-desktop as the problem. We're back to some instruction in TC 9 your CPU doesn't like. Did you try TC 9 from a USB drive? Have you tried any earlier versions of TC like 8 or earlier in a VM?

Juanito:
Xorg-7.7 is limited to pentium-m and up
