Description
I have configured several virtual machines running the latest Linux Mint 20 XFCE4 edition. The display configuration is VMSVGA + 3D acceleration. After installing g++, make, and 6.1.8 guest additions I rebooted them. Then I installed the Atom editor. On every machine the same error occurred reproducibly: When I tore off a tab to attach it to another pane the vm crashed with an error message:
The instruction at 0x00007FFE673EE652 referenced memory at 0x0000000000000000. The memory could not be written. Click OK to terminate the program.
The error seems not to occur when I use another virtual graphics card, but due to the performance lack this is not solution to the problem.
As I said: I have set up several machines from scratch, the error occurs everytime, absolutely reproducible within Atom.
