X crash

[Richard Jonsson]

Binary package hint: xorg

1) 9.10 karmic
2)
xorg:
  Installerad: 1:7.4+3ubuntu7
  Kandidat: 1:7.4+3ubuntu7
3) nothing
4) For no apparent reason, X dies and I'm greeted with the login screen. Naturally all work is lost, which makes this a serious issue.
This happened yesterday too, within hours of a reboot.
I have no idea how to trigger it :/

Additionally, when trying to report with "ubuntu-bug -p xorg" it said not to use "-p", while here on launchpad it says I should.

The bug was reproduced it since yesterday?
What applications were launched at the bugs?
The use of Compiz Fusion makes Xorg more unstable depending of the applications used.

[Richard Jonsson (richard-jonsson-bredband)]

The bugreport is from the second occurence. I did not report the first crash.

From memory this is what I had running (both times):
gimp, firefox, pidgin, terminal, hugin panorama creator.

The first time I'm not sure which app I was using, the second time I was working in hugin.

[Richard Jonsson (richard-jonsson-bredband)]

I have been using nvidia-190 for a week with no crashes. Now I'm back on nvidia-185 and had a crash just now.

Xorg: 1:7.4+3ubuntu9
Nvidia: 185.18.36-0ubuntu9

Apps running: firefox, chromium, pidgin, liferea.

Was watching a youtube-clip. I still don't know how to trigger.

This bug report was filed against an old version of Ubuntu.
Can you confirm whether this is still an issue in natty?

If you don't mind, it would be very helpful if you could update the bug
report in launchpad to 'Fix Released' if it is no longer an issue for
you, or if it is still occurring under natty, please tag the bug 'natty'
so it's easier for us to track.

[bugbot (bugbot)]

We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help.
