You have been subscribed to a public bug: When launching either Thunderbird or Firefox, my desktop session crashes. I see the underlying command line stuff for a second, and then lightdm launches and I have to re-log in again.
This seems to coincide with my recent issue of not being able to launch Unity or Gnome Shell with nvidia-current drivers installed. The only DE that works for me is Classic Gnome w/o effects. When launching Unity from lightdm, the behavior is the same as mentioned above -- the desktop crashes, and immediately spawns lightdm again. I can repeat this cycle ad-nauseum. --- ApportVersion: 2.4-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 EcryptfsInUse: Yes NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: unity 6.2.0-0ubuntu2 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-11.11-generic 3.5.2 Tags: third-party-packages quantal third-party-packages quantal Uname: Linux 3.5.0-11-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo --- ApportVersion: 2.4-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 EcryptfsInUse: Yes NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Package: unity 6.2.0-0ubuntu2 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-11.11-generic 3.5.2 Tags: third-party-packages quantal third-party-packages quantal Uname: Linux 3.5.0-11-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Tags: apport-collected nvidia-current quantal third-party-packages unity -- When launching Thunderbird (or Firefox), the Desktop session crashes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1039148 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ 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
