Created attachment 101864 [details] xorg logs Upgrading to mesa and mesa-libgl 10.2 causes vmware (13.0.2) driver to lock up upon startup of X. Attaching Xorg log from ArchLinux user reporting issue. Downgrading mesa and libgl library to <= 10.1 resolves the issue as a temporary fix and confirmation to reproduce the problem.

Since it's apparent from the log that the vmware driver fails to initialize XA, and that AIGLX loads the swrast library, obviously something has gone wrong when you built mesa 10.2. Note that xf86-video-vmware probably also needs to be rebuilt against the new XA headers to be able to pick up the new xa library. The crash that you're seeing looks like a crash in an error path. Thus lowering the importance. /Thomas
Rebuilt against new headers, problem still persists. Unfortunately this is about the extent of what I can do with this. I'll report back to the Arch community about your mesa build concern and hopefully pull in the maintainer for input on this, thank you.
Hmm. Turns out I jumped a bit on the conclusion here. There is indeed a problem with mesa 10.2, but it only (or mostly) triggers when it fails to turn on 3D acceleration, or if 3D is disabled for the VM. You'll then see the symptoms you describe here. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 80645 ***
