Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install Ubuntu 10.04 on a machine with an Intel X4500 (non-"HD" variant) 
display adapter.
2. Launch Firefox (I tested 13.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.10.04.1 and latest nightly 
build as of 2012-06-28)
3. Open URL 
<http://www.amd.com/us/press-releases/Pages/amd-launches-worlds-fastest-2011dec22.aspx>
 (WARNING: this will crash your gnome session if you're running on Intel X4500).

Expected result:

The web page at the URL should be displayed.

Actual result:

X crashes and gdm relaunches the greeting screen. As far as I can see,
the crash happens even if Firefox does not run any JavaScript or Plugins
so I guess it's related to some font or background image on the page.

Additional information:

The issue cannot be reproduced with unstable Google Chrome so I guess
this is triggered by Firefox and X.org combination. The fact that this
is reproducible with the latest nightly build of Firefox
(http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-
trunk/firefox-16.0a1.en-US.linux-x86_64.tar.bz2) suggests that this is
not related just single version of Firefox.

I haven't been able to create minimal test case and I don't know how
long amd.com will continue to serve the exact same web page that
triggers the issue.

I haven't tested with a machine running Intel X4500HD but I've tested
with a machine running on Q35 chipset (which I believe has Intel X3000
display adapter) and it does not crash. From previous experiences
between Intel X4500 and Intel X4500HD, I'd guess that this does not
crash X4500HD either.

dmesg shows a hint:

/var/log/gdm/:0.log.* contains following hint:

Fatal server error:

However, I have no idea which device is full. Mounted devices have plenty of
free space:

$ df -h

As well as memory:

Mem:          7810       6328       1482          0       1372       2319

Swap:         7444          0       7444

In case it matters, I have following displays connected to the display
adapter:

HDMI (primary display): LG L2000CN running 1600x1200@60Hz
VGA (secondary display on the right): DELL 1907FP running 1024x1024@60Hz

I have pretty much default Gnome desktop with compiz with some tweaks
set with CompizConfig Settings Manager (ccsm). The system seems to be
very stable except for this bug.
