(Get the code!)
I'm running Debian testing/unstable with Xorg 7.2 from testing, NVIDIA GeForce 4 Ti4200 with the 96.43.01 drivers. I HAVE been running Yakuake, but I have NOT been using Compiz, Beryl, or any other compositing manager.
I am getting this crash, and it is quite frustrating. It has happened to me when logging in to KDE, without even accessing the Yakuake window. It has happened to me when Amarok was the only window on screen. It has happened to me when hiding Yakuake. Today I got a crash while KDE was logging in, and it froze up the computer completely, with the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock lights blinking.
This was not happening to me a week ago! I have gone through my aptitude log but I can't figure out what upgrade might have caused it. I have rebuilt and reinstalled the NVIDIA drivers but it didn't help. I downgraded from Xorg 7.3 to 7.2, but that didn't help.
For the time being I will stop using Yakuake and see if that helps. However, all of yesterday I used it as usual and had no crashes. I have used Yakuake for years, and I've never had any trouble with it except when using compositing.
Argh!
