Since the updates during the second week of August I am experiencing the same problem with a Dell XPS M1330 with an nvidia graphics card. I removed the nvidia proprietary drivers and experience the same problem (but the xorg.conf file might not have been consistent with this change...)
I can make the X server crash by: - clicking on Dash in the unity side panel - trying to run xfig - trying to run xfontsel - trying to run calibre - trying to run skype Whether I log in using unity or gnome the symptoms are the same. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1036868 Title: Xorg crashes back to logon screen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1036868/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
