The bug is alive, no changes. Upgrading the X server and intel video driver from xorg-edgers removes the issue. However, now the intel driver from xorg-edgers is based on SNA acceleration, which is still buggy, so it is no longer a good solution. After upgrade the intel driver from x-updates (to version 2.19) the crashes do not happen, but in place of the crash the screen starts to blink crazily, showing various screen images that no longer exist.
I believe the issue is caused by the bug bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43146 which was fixed in X server 1.12. That is why upgrading X to 1.12 always solved the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to libdrm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/974041 Title: KWin option of auto-suspending for fullscreen windows often causes X to crash in libdrm_intel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdrm/+bug/974041/+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
