Bug Description
Binary package hint: unity
I upgraded to Natty Narwhal 11.04 and now my system randomly logs me out. I am using the "ubuntu classic" login option rather than unity. So far, it has only occurred while I am using Chrome, but I am almost always using Chrome, so that could be a coincidence. I have a Dell Latitude D630.
~$ apt-cache policy unity

I can confirm that this has happened to me several more times. Again, it has
always happened while using chrome and it appears to usually happen right
after clicking on a link on a website (not website specific).

I'm very sure this is somehow associated with "clicking" something. Might it be a link, an option in a program or starting the program by the unity launcher link. Weired. And totally random.

Now I can also confirm this happening while using the terminal. I would guess that it is unrelated to browser use, unless the browser and the terminal command (and whatever everyone else is doing) access some resource that forces the system to logout.
I can also confirm that it is really annoying.

The same problem occurs sometimes here.
There is nothing specific that I'm doing when this happens.
Since this happens with GNOME2 too, it's probably a compiz bug.

I have the same problem on a laptop with switchable ati graphics running natty. I have the radeon module blacklisted, then I modprobe it and use vgaswitcheroo to disable the ati card in rc.local. My computer seems much more likely to log back out within a few minutes of logging in. sometimes it does it immediately after, other times it happens when I click on something. Let me know if anyone needs any log files.

Exact same problem here, I have a Dell Latitude D610, I'm using Ubuntu Classic, random log out generally after one click in Chrome, it can be after a click on a link but it just happened to me after closing a tab, I also had the case once while I was using the Pokerstars app in Wine 1.2.2, I can spend a whole day without this occuring but it can also occur 5 min after turning on my laptop, the only systematic trigger seems to be a mouse click.

This appears to be in some way chrome-related. I had not had this happen more than about 1 minute after log in. If I got through that minute, it was smooth sailing for as long as I used my computer. I just installed chromium after using my computer for about 30 minutes. It logged out after just a few minutes of using chromium. Attached is everything that I have modified in my system. Could this be related to switchable graphics? Or possibly the intel driver?

By "logout" do you all mean that the entire GUI crashes and GDM has to restart? That is what I have been intermittently experiencing after Natty Narwhal. Just today it happened while I was typing into gedit, not running Chromium.

I have noticed that people have experienced this problem with multiple types of graphics cards, so I am guessing that is not related. Because it is so intermittent, I am having a hard time troubleshooting it. Has anyone found a way to reliably trigger a logout/GDM crash? Has anyone experienced this on a fresh installation? Could it be some way that we have configured X/GDM/Unity?

I've seen this without Chrome running at all. It is happening once or twice a day, which really makes my machine unusable, as my VirtualBox sessions are killed each time.

I experienced this problem with the broadcom wifi chip that came with my laptop and continue to experience it with an intel centrino 6200 installed, so I doubt that it is related to wireless drivers, unless it has something to do with the network manager or something else that is universal.

Hmmm, I've been experiencing this problem repeatedly.
I have a feeling it has to do with running the amd64 version on an Intel CPU. Can anyone disprove this hypothesis?

William Haines (william-haines1) wrote : | #28 |
In response to Ben Lin, I was under the impression that the 64 bit version of ubuntu was called amd64 only because amd had 64 bit CPU's on the market before intel and it was named at that time. That being said, I am not an expert and I too am running the amd64 version on an intel CPU, so there may be something to it. If I get time, I might try to install the 32 bit version and see if I still experience this problem.

Looks like apport fails to report the crash.
Could it be a GPU lockup? https:/
Workaround: I reported a workaround that worked with my laptop. Since then I have consistently verified the workaround. If the laptop is powered on AC main there are no crash/logouts. Auto logouts only when using battery power. Could power management linked to GPU lockup. Wild guess: Some kind of wait/timeout issue?

I had similar problem when I used the Leadtek nVidia GT220 graphic card on my desktop with the nVidia proprietary driver available from the Ubuntu repository.
The problem disappeared after I:
- physically removed the Leadtek nVidia GT220 from my desktop
- uninstalled the nVidia proprietary driver from Synaptics
- used the Intel HD Graphics 2000 from my Intel Sandy Bridge i5-2500

Fernando, good work! That shows a nearly perfect backtrace, but we're missing symbols for the first two calls (which is probably where the crash is):
#0 0x0057ffb4 in pixman_region_equal () from /usr/lib/
No symbol table info available.
#1 0x0018e798 in ?? () from /usr/lib/
No symbol table info available.
Can you install the dbgsym packages for pixman and the openchrome driver and do it once more?
Also, I should also mention your backtrace is completely different than what's shown in other people's Xorg.0.log.old so is probably some other unrelated X crash. (Like I mention, every type of X crash results in the same thing - dropping you back to the login screen).
Your syslog also shows that the kernel is very sick (but not in the graphics drm stack). Hard to tell if those errors relate to the crash you're seeing, but if I had to guess, it looks like something deeper is wrong in your system and X crashing is just a side effect.

Has absolutely nothing to do with Chromium or any Browser based on it.

did anyone get any deeper into issue?
i have few questions:
Are you using v86d deamon for nice tty virtualization?
which wm/dm are you using?
ary you using any framebuffer at all?
It may be releated to Xserver/
we need to filter some stuff, forget about firefox, vlc chrome or any application you are using for regular work, this bug isn't owned by them.

markoER, yes I think I have it sorted now.
Now that we have some better backtraces (thanks Maciej!), what I think most people are seeing is bug #774978. Sarvatt came up with a fix for that, which I've uploaded to oneiric and natty-proposed today. Seems likely that will resolve the problem for most people on this bug report, so I'm going to set this as a dupe. It might take a bit of time for the fix to percolate through the SRU process to natty-updates so if you find this annoying you might want to enable -proposed to get the fix (or upgrade to oneiric early!)
However, like I mentioned, Fernando has a different crash trace. Fernando your latest trace looks *really* good, but could you post a new bug report for it and we can work on it there?

I have same issue behavior like others but not indentical, I can't trace nothing unnusual on my system, There is many people on net who reports this bug with slighty different circumstances. Somehow reverting v86d to older version fixes it for me, So it may be possible that there is something wrong with frambuffer control. On my Arch System this Fix work for 2 day without randomly loging out

I have this problem as well on Natty x64 using Ubuntu Classic with no effects on a Dell XPS 410. It has happened with Firefox, Thunderbird, Terminal, Libreoffice, Evince, and Nautilus,. I have an Nvidia card, I am running with the Nvidia 173 driver. I guess I'll try the current driver to see if that helps.

Two things:
1. Modified title because it has nothing to do with upgrading to Natty. Even a fresh install has issues.
2. This is not a dupe of #774978. This crash has nothing to do with XRecord

Already many comments, so I don't know if one helps at all. My laptop is a Fujitsu S710 with integrated Intel graphics running a quad core i7, and I only noticed this bug during the last month. It happens while using Chromium or editing video on KDEnlive.

Still having this problem quite often on my Ubuntu 11.10 64bits up-to-date.
Usually, it occurs when i launch Chrome, or Firefox, or when i open a new tab in Chrome (so i don't think it's really related to the application as i get this with these two brothers).
It's very annoying.

I had the same problem before. The Google Chrome triggered the logouts. Since that I updated both the Chrome and Ubuntu kernel and now I have no any random logouts and system is quite stable. My current kernel is Linux 2.6.38-

hello guys. I have ubuntu 12.04 64bit and chrome. I had the same problem a while back. th solution is to enable direct rendering on the card you use. For instance i have an Intel HD and a radeon 6470 HD but only my radeon had direc rendering enabled. When i switched to intel my computer automatically log out every time i opened chrome. As soon as i enabled direct rendering on my intel card random log offs stopped. I hop i helped a little bit.
btw: sorry 4 my bad english...:p

It has been happening to me for approx 1 month.
This ALWAYS AND ONLY happens to me when I CLOSE A BROWSER TAB , 99% of the time it's google chromium, and once or twice for firefox.
x86_64, intel graphics, ivy bridge, samsung laptop, wifi, pulse, and that silly "rtkit" realtime daemon.
xorg-edgers, any recent kernel.... vmlinuz-
Just wanted to start Firefox (4) and I was instantly logged out, so this could be browser related. The last time I wanted to change some settings in Firefox. I'm on am64 Natty and I have a Lenovo SL500.
