Kernel panic posted: Jun 15, 2008 11:54 PM

I've been using Fusion 2.0b1 from the first day without problems, leaving a Windows XP VM running 24/7. This morning my iMac greeted me with a kernel panic screen. I'm not sure if it's VMware related, but I thought I'd post it for everyone to see, in case it's useful. It's a strange panic, I've never seen "cpu 1 failing to respond to interrupts", it looked like a hardware failure to me at first... but who knows.

Hi Manuel,

Thanks for taking the time to report this. It looks like this is an ATI driver bug; there isn't any Fusion code involved in the crash traceback:
