For me this bug causes Skype to crash X (mentioned in linked bug 1286039). System worked fine on 13.04 and 13.10 (over-eager upgrade to 14.04 to get 5.1 HDMI sound working!).
This can be worked around by unplugging the USB webcam and then changing the Skype settings to not use a camera - then the webcam can be safely reattached. I guess this would be more difficult for someone with a built in webcam. Obviously this workaround does nothing to alleviate the earache I am getting from my mother-in-law about no longer being able to see her grandson, so if there is any further information I can provide to help with fixing this, please let me know! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1279412 Title: Xorg crashed with SIGABRT in xdl_xs115_atiddxPixmapIsTypeOf() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1279412/+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
