Comment 23 for bug 911963

I had this crash today in Debian Jessie (testing), same symptoms and stack trace (and I have an Intel driver.)

That's with xorg-xserver-core 2:1.15.99.904-1. Ubuntu 14.04 version is also 1.15 so I think bug probably still exists there also, but cannot confirm.

The Ubuntu bug report indicates it was a bug in xorg-xserver, but this version of xorg-xserver-core has that fix already:

(Commit here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=863d528a9f76d0e8f122aebf19f8564a4c67a938 ).

In my case the bug consistently crashed xorg with every 10-15 minutes of Kicad use. Rebooting appears to have stopped it for now (I'm guessing due to random memory allocation.)

I've now installed debug symbols for xorg-xserver-core so if I get a proper stack trace (or any more information) I'll post back, and/or send it towards the Freedesktop maintainers. But I thought it would be useful to keep this bug posted too.
