I've had Arch set up in VMware Player before without issue, but this time I can't seem to figure out if I'm doing something wrong or if something has changed and there's a bug. Every time I attempt to reboot or shutdown the system, the system just hangs at a black screen indefinitely, totally unresponsive to input.
While the system is in this apparently hung state, I can SSH into the VM and I see that the process "Xorg.bin" is using 100% CPU. When I kill this process, the SSH connection drops instantly and the VM will reboot.
I've gone through the Wiki, everything about the vmware tools seems to be working while I'm logged in and using the system. I've made sure to add KillSignal=SIGKILL to the vmtoolsd.service file (I've also tried using "TimeoutStopSec=2" as well, but it doesn't help either).
Does this sound like an issue with open-vm-tools? Or perhaps with Xorg (1.16)?
