Ah, OK. I'll re-test and report back.

Title:
[vmwgfx] Update to mesa and xorg-server causes Cinnamon desktop to not
render properly
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in mesa package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
On a VMWare Workstation VM running Linux Mint 20.1 (64-bit) with
Cinnamon 4.8.6 or Linux Mint 20.2 (64-bit) with Cinnamon 5.0.5,
upgrading to a specific mesa and xorg-server version, followed by a
system restart, led to the Cinnamon desktop not rendering correctly,
such that the desktop was unusable. The rendering problem is that
icons and menus are displayed as grey rectangles and it's not possible
to see what they are.
I believe the problem is in one of these packages:
* mesa 21.0.3-0ubuntu0.2-20.04.1
* xorg-server 2:1.20.11-1ubuntu1-20.04.2
Restoring the system from backup, and then upgrading but omitting the above
two updates and restarting, the system behaves as expected. It's not
immediately clear which of these packages is causing the problem.
