Comment 37 for bug 660301

I believe I have the same bug. I have a fresh install of lubuntu
10.10 on an ancient Pentium II PC with an old Diamond Stealth III s540
graphics card. I am seeing symptoms similar to #5 above.

GLXInfo fails with an error message:

X Error of failed request: BadDrawable (invalid Pixmap or Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request: 137 (XFree86-DRI)
  Minor opcode of failed request: 9 ()
  Resource id in failed request: 0x1c00004
  Serial number of failed request: 44
  Current serial number in output stream: 44

No vidio in Chrome browser (but doesn't crash). Glxgears crashes to
the login screen after displaying an empty window frame.

I also believe this is the cause of several programs crashing XWindows
session to crash the login screen in this version of lubuntu:

any XScreenSaver.
any Wine program after displaying a empty window frame.
any attempt to use Power modes other than shutdown or reboot.

Otherwise, lubuntu seems quite reasonable and responsive on this
machine and once some bugs are cleaned up, should work quite nicely.

Let me know if you need more information.
