Title:
  [VMWare Workstation 6.0.3] Gnome problems after fullscreen

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This problem started after upgrading to Hardy:

  After switching VMware Workstation 6.0.3 into full screen mode, the
  shift and caps lock keys won't function anymore in the host OS (Ubuntu
  8.04). They are still ok in the guest OS.

  Gnome applications that were started before VMWare goes fullscreen,
  continue to run and they can receive keyboard events. Gnome
  applications that were started afterwards will segfault as soon as
  they receive keyboard input. Non-Gnome applications like xterm won't
  segfault.

  I don't think that this has anything to do with the guest OS because
  the same thing happens with W2k and Debian 4.0 + Gnome as the guest.
  But apparently it does have to be an OS with "big video". I also tried
  DOS and Windows 3 (I'm keeping this just for fun, I also have Windows
  1), but then it doesn't happen. Using the fullscreen mode in Gimp, VLC
  and gThumb does not generate this effect.

  Here are some of the segfaults:

  May  2 12:53:19 queens kernel: [596672.630436] gedit[18474]: segfault at 00000028 eip b76e2275 esp bf8d4270 error 4

  My video card is a Matrox P650 and I am using matroxdriver_mtx-
  x86_32-1.4.5.2
