GURU MEDITATION(VERR_VMX_INVALID_GUEST_STATE)

[matteo sisti sette]

My virtual machine suddenly stopped working with the infamous "guru meditation" error message.

[matteo sisti sette]

OMG doesn't let me attach the log file because it exceeds the maximum allowed file size.

You should increase the file size limit to AT LEAST the size of a reasonably big VM log file.

[matteo sisti sette]

It's less than 300kb by the way, that is really ridiculous

[matteo sisti sette]

zipped log file

[matteo sisti sette]

I've attached it zipped

Just a few minutes later, VB crashed again, this times without the "guru meditation" message, but it made the xorg server crash and force a logout!!!!!!!

(obviously there's a bug in xorg itself if it crashes triggered by virtualbox's crash, no matter how bad)

In meanwhile VBox 4.1.12 and 4.1.14 were released. Could you please try the most recent version 4.1.14?

Duplocate of #10475 and most likely not fixed in VBox 4.1.14. As for the attachment size: I've increased the maximum size from 256KB to 512KB which is sufficient for most cases. I see no problem in compressing bigger attachments as you've already done.
