Servo doesn't run on Ubuntu (32/64bit) under VMWare

GDB is unable to provide any symbols on the stack at all. Valgrind reports the following:

Possible 32bit problem. Will try a 64bit VM tomorrow.

64bit also crashes. It's a problem with VMWare's graphics drivers, probably.

Both hardware accerelated and software graphics crash. VMware5 says support OpenGL 2.1 and Xrender, and requires Linux kernel 3.2.0+ and Mesa3D 8.0.0+.

triage: I think @larsbergstrom uses a VM regularly and it works?

I've run it multiple times. I don't see any particular reason to leave this open as filed.
