** Description changed: I recently upgraded to ubuntu 14.10 and started experiencing repeatable unity crashes while watching youtube videos using current chrome. It - doesn't always crash at the first attempt but most definitely. + doesn't always crash at the first attempt but most definitely it will + crash sooner or later. Once unity crashes it is respawn but again crashes immediately, the PC becomes unusable until I kill X from the console or reboot. From my .xsession-errors: upstart: unity7 main process (9627) terminated with status 1 upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning upstart: unity7 main process (9998) terminated with status 1 upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning upstart: unity7 main process (10017) terminated with status 1 upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning upstart: unity7 main process (10041) terminated with status 1 upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning upstart: unity7 main process (10054) terminated with status 1 upstart: unity7 main process ended, respawning [you got the point] Unity support test results are not reassuring: ------------ $ /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p libGL error: failed to open drm device: Permission denied libGL error: failed to load driver: i965 OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc.

In my view this is a regression.
