I'm seeing the same problem as Jérôme and Mauro [from bug 650539]. I have exactly one NVIDIA display adapter, using the proprietary driver (version 173 and "current" both exhibit the problem), and the adapter is attached to exactly one monitor. Emacs, rxvt, VLC, and xawtv each crash the server. Here is the Xorg output:

  Backtrace:

  Segmentation fault at address (nil)

Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting

I ran through half of the demos in the "qtdemo" package and none crashed the server. (I don't have all the KDE infrastructure installed, so I didn't test that.) So it does not seem to be related to bug 650539. The server does *not* crash when using the free-software NVIDIA driver.

I have not been able to disable the Xinerama extension either by putting 'Option "Xinerama" "0"' in the "ServerLayout" sections, or by using the "-xinerama" command-line argument to /usr/bin/Xorg. I've read that the NVIDIA driver forces it on or something.

Also, "ubuntu-bug" accused my of installing NVIDIA drivers manually from nvidia.com. I did not.

As Robert wrote, i also meet this bug in the same condition.

- Sony Vaio z series;
- Ubuntu 10.10 64bits
- Nvidia Geforce GT 330
- last NVIDIA drivers

I also have a intel card in this laptop (with a switch to use it or the nvidia), and it's work without changing anything (except gl lib needed for 3d acceleration)

I'm experiencing this bug, too

- Zotac ION ITX
- Ubuntu 10.10 32bit
- Single screen configuration
- NVIDIA closed source drivers from distribution

Many QT based applications seem to be affected. In addition to those listed in the bug title, i have also problems with keepassx and smplayer. Some apps crash the x server immediately, others only when trying to work with them (e.g. opening dialog boxes).

Because this bug is extremly annoying, i looked a bit further into what is happening.
Running the X server in gdb gives the following details on the crash:

The blameworthy code in dixfonts.c looks like this:

    918 while (c->current.current_fpe < c->num_fpes)
    919 {
    920 fpe = c->fpe_list[c->current.current_fpe];
    921 err = Successful;

So lets take a look into the ominous "c":

----------snip------
(gdb) print *c
$1 = {client = 0x8b292c8, num_fpes = 145920400, fpe_list = 0x0, reply = 0x0,

    max_names = 0, list_started = 1, private = 0x0}, saved = {
    pattern = "\b\b\b\b\t\t\t\t\n\n\n\n\v\v\v\v\f\f\f\f\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\016\016\016\016\017\017\017\017\017\017\017\017", '\020' <repeats 12 times>, '\021' <repeats 44 times>, '\020' <repeats 12 times>, "\017\017\017\017\017\017\017\017\016\016\016\016\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\r\f\f\f\f\v\v\v\v\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\b\b\b\b\a\a\a\a\006\006\006\006\005\005\005\005\004\004\004\004\003\003\003\003\001\001\001\001", '\000' <repeats 83 times>, patlen = 0, current_fpe = 0, max_names = 0,
    list_started = 0, private = 0x0}, savedNumFonts = 0, haveSaved = 0,
  savedName = 0x0}
----------snip------

Note, that c->fpe_list is NULL, while c->num_fpes contains an unreasonable value.
When printing this value in hex, it actually looks like a pointer instead of the
expected count. I guess, the data structure has either been corrupted somewhere or
c points to something completely wrong.

At this point i must give up; i don't understand enough on the interna of the x server.

Try uninstalling xfs.

145920400 is 0x08B29190 which does look a little like a pointer (would be more convincing if it was 8 digits of hex rather than 7 or if the hex value matched one of the pointers in the backtrace), but it probably is merely an uninitialized integer, and just looks similar because its the same byte size as an ordinary pointer.

Hey Robert,

Hi, have you had a chance to test if this bug is still present in natty?

If it does (and if you're the original reporter), please boot into natty
and run the command:

apport-collect <bug-number>

which will update the bug with fresh logs and tag the bug as affecting
natty. (It is best to run this right after reproducing the problem.)

I experience this problem also on Natty. I reopened the bug, as instructed, and provided information using apport-collect. I ran apport-collect after provoking an X crash, and then logging in again.

The problem is easy to reproduce by starting emacs, nxclient, or a few other applications whose names I currently don't remember.

Removing xfs did not work for me. KDE hangs when I login. If anyone has hints on how to run KDE without xfs, I am interested.

Regards,

Lars Albertsson

That version is no more supported; please open a new bug report if the actual archive found version also has the same issue.
