Bug Description

My setup:
 * up-to-date zesty
 * unity8-greeter as greeter
 * unity7 as desktop

How to reproduce:
 * open xterm
 * start webbrowser-app from xterm

Everything locks up and have to hard reboot the computer.

I tried catching the output to a file with &> but got nothing, so i took a picture.

I tried on Zesty with my AMD machine, no lock up for me. Browser comes up ok. I do get lots of libGL errors though
