Seems to me to have been good last words this time. ;) So I am running this all day now and I think I did not have a segfault due to procstat so far. Thanks for the fixes and I like the new indicator icon. :)
That being said, I still had some crashes today and I am thinking that perhaps finally I might have something true to the topic of this thread. At least it crashes within libnvidia and I do not get an ASAN trace. For what it's worth, I tried to record a trace as good as I can. https://pastebin.com/p41b7GKW This happens reproducibly when I change from X running E to the text console and then back to the graphics screen. (I did quite a lot of these switches lately for running gdb while E is stil crashed.) When I have an "empty" E running it is fine. However, as soon as some window is open it reliably segfaults upon returning to X. Any ideas?
