I created the file: sudo touch /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
sudo nano /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf Then pasted the following content: Section "Device" Identifier "Card0" Driver "Intel" Option "AccelMethod" "uxa" EndSection which resolved the random crash errors. cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i sna to check if SNA is enabled and working Some time before that I disabled window animations but that only diminished the number of crashes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1510970 Title: Intel driver crashes on Ubuntu 15.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1510970/+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
