I had X crash on me twice today. Each time I got the following in the logs.
First crash x-session-manager[3183]: WARNING: Detected that screensaver has left the bus gdm[2743]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 acpid: client 2748[0:0] has disconnected acpid: client 2748[0:0] has disconnected acpid: client connected from 28410[0:0] acpid: client connected from 28410[0:0] Second crash x-session-manager[28445]: WARNING: Detected that screensaver has left the bus gdm[28375]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 acpid: client 28410[0:0] has disconnected acpid: client 28410[0:0] has disconnected acpid: client connected from 29576[0:0] acpid: client connected from 29576[0:0] acpid: client connected from 2700[111:120] Here is my hardware. Asus M3A motherboard AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ CPU 3GB physical memory XFX 8800 GT Alpha Dog 512MB DDR3 Standard (PV-T88P-YDF4) Video card with restricted driver (180) The first message mentions the screensaver, but in both cases I was in the middle of doing stuff when I suddenly got dropped to a login screen. The screen saveer was not on. And I have screen saver set to just blank screen. Apps I had open included Firefox, terminal, and jEdit. I looked in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and it does not contain 'AccellMethod' anywhere in it. I saw someone mention that turning off the compiz extra effects is a solution. Is it the consensus from folks on this thread that users should not run the Extra Effects? That seems more like a workaround rather than a solution. If anyone has anything else that I might try to isolate this problem, please let me know what I can do.
