I have the same exact problem in 12.10 running the latest updates Im crashing to the login screen without any errors to the Xorg.log ....... whenever i try to play a video .
What i did is uninstall my nvidia 310 drivers ( that was working perfectly , i only got this problem today though i was using 310 for almost a month) and used the open source ubuntu default nouveau and the problem is still here . So there is nothing to do with the nvidia proprietary drivers. The culprit is somthing else and it isnt fixed yet although the bug says fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/980519 Title: Random log off in Ubuntu 12.04 LTS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/980519/+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
