Kernel Panic on launch — 2015 13" Broadwell Retina MacBook P

[loukingjr]

According to the Apple Support Communities…
New 2015 MacBook Pro - Kernel Panic since 10.10.3 update
There are people with and without VirtualBox and or VMware Fusion installed getting GPU kernel panics. Most seem to have a permissions problem with displaypolicyd.

It may not be a VirtualBox problem at all.

That error is normally a hardware problem. It could be a bad kext however.

What third party apps have you installed if any and did you add third party memory?

Hi, my memory is expanded to 16GB but it's directly from Apple so should not be an issue. To be safe, i did a memtest and it seems to look fine.

As for 3rd party apps, i have a number installed; spotify, pycharm, twitter, dropbox, google drive, vlc, MS one note.

Anything glaring to take note?
