I have retested this with linux-image-4.1.0-2-amd64 4.1.6-1 and I no longer get the kernel general protection fault.
So one of the Linux kernel updates of the past two years must have fixed this. (And I'm still using VMware, still have VirtualBox installed but no longer have an NVidia card. Guess who will be blamed...) -- Francois Gouget <[email protected]> http://fgouget.free.fr/ Hell is empty and all the devils are here. -- Wm. Shakespeare, "The Tempest"
