Public bug reported: I believe this bug is related to the video driver but I'm not sure ... Anyway there goes the report:
This is a crash that happens every time I open two different applications (for example: Chromium and Nautilus), one of them in workspace 1 and the other in workspace 2. When I change the focus between them for some time (from 3 to 5 times), there is a crash that causes, first, the window manager (or gnome shell, I'm not sure) to reboot, then, if I insist on trying to switch between the applications for some more times, the crash seems to be more severe and ubuntu returns to the login screen (gdm3). I'm using a dell inspiron 15 series 7000 (gaming), notebook with 2 displays (one is the display of the notebook itself and the other is an LG 23EA53, connected via HDMI and configured as a primary) To make the focus change I use the mouse, I click on "Activities" and, with the mouse, I click on the application that appears in the workspaces pile to the right of the display, below and above, successively until the crach occurs. Usando Alt-TAB parece, a princípio, que o crash não ocorre... or it takes longer to occur :-) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.10 Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.15-2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.12.0-13.14-generic 4.12.10 Uname: Linux 4.12.0-13-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.7-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 BootLog: /dev/sda2: clean, 465520/2293760 files, 2530420/9175040 blocks CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: None CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Mon Sep 11 08:43:27 2017 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: artful DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: No GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation Device [8086:591b] (rev 04) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:0798] NVIDIA Corporation GP107M [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Mobile] [10de:1c8c] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Dell GP107M [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Mobile] [1028:0798] InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-08-12 (29 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 17.10 "Artful Aardvark" - Alpha amd64 (20170812) Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0cf3:e007 Atheros Communications, Inc.
