Removing window matching rules in Window Decorations - Shadow Windows resolved the crashes for me, too (now I'm using devilspie to unshadow windows).

[Bug 706918] Re: compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in RegexExp::evaluate()
I first noticed this problem when I started running Conky. However, it had nothing to do with Conky itself, but rather with the rule I put in ccsm (CompizConfig Settings Manager) to disable shadows on the Conky window [i.e. Window Decorations - Shadow Windows = (any) !(class=Conky)]. This causes Compiz to segfault in libregex.so, probably because it's using regex to try to match the window class/title. To prove this, I stopped running Conky but left the rule in place and, sure enough, Compiz continues to crash at random times. Removing the rule fixed the intermittent crashes in my case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/706918 Title: compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in RegexExp::evaluate() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/706918/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
