Another report and some thoughts below HW: Asus Vivobook (touchscreen, Intel graphics), external monitor attached. OS: Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon x64. State before crash: Running X session using both displays ("big desktop"), several applications, Vivaldi browser active. My aim: Lock the computer. Course of action, the USUAL part: Pressed Ctrl+Alt+L, not locked - Vivaldi displayed its menu (to be displayed upon pressing Alt), tapped the touchscreen to get rid of the menu and thus actually lock the computer. Course of action, the UNUSUAL part: Black screen for a few seconds, then login screen, old X session gone.

The segfault really seems to affect multiple users, especially with Chromium-based browsers, e.g.: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=131328 - from 2011 already https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=221888 - solution? I don't know if syslog preserves the order of events (within a second), but if yes, then the segfault is just a consequence of another problem, e.g.: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/999191 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libx11 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1636564 Title: Segfault from libX11.so.6.3.0 Status in libx11 package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Something went wrong with my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS desktop today. When I got back to the system Mattermost and a Chrome were indicating that the network was not working. I started to look about and it seemed that my main ethernet network connection had lost its IPv4 address somehow. ifconfig and the GUI network manager confirmed this. To try and resolve this I physically removed the connector and the plugged it back in. Shortly after I did this my GUI seemed to die out and I ended up back at the login screen. Once everything had calmed down I logged back in. After some digging about in the logs I noticed the following in /var/log/kern.log Oct 25 13:01:09 thorne-ul-dt kernel: [694321.877561] Mattermost[744]: segfault at 968 ip 00007f8a9e257643 sp 00007ffe72a3b510 error 4 in libX11.so.6.3.0[7f8a9e22f000+135000] Oct 25 13:01:09 thorne-ul-dt kernel: [694322.029362] chrome[745]: segfault at 968 ip 00007fd4b5c73643 sp 00007fff94f78d90 error 4 in libX11.so.6.3.0[7fd4b5c4b000+135000] That seemed to be the correct time for the problem I noticed. What exactly caused it I am not sure.
