Aypok, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Thank you for your understanding.

Not really sure what else to put. More details below. 4) X crashed and returned me to the login screen. More details on what happens: It seems that loading child windows within certain applications causes Xorg to crash out and return me to the login screen. Most apps seem fine, though. I've been loading every app I have installed and opening as many windows I can find, but very few seem to cause this. How to reproduce: Using VirtualBox. I've copied across some VirtualBox settings from my previous installation and, upon loading VirtualBox on this new installation, I'm given a dialog box which says that one or more of the virtual disks are inaccessible. I'm given the option to "Ignore" or to "Check" and, upon clicking "Check", a new window pops up for a fraction of a second before then X dies and returns me to the login screen. This may help: load VirtualBox, create a new system, close VirtualBox, move the new system's files to where it can't find them then re-load VirtualBox. I did replicate the problem in another app earlier, but can't recall which one... All I remember is that the app loaded fine, but clicking a button to load a child window (a graph, I think), caused X to crash and dump me at the login screen. I'll update the ticket if I find it again. Relevant and perhaps useful information about my system: * Xubuntu 13.10 (fresh install on a new drive); * Running an Nvidia GTX 670 with the proprietary NVidia drivers (v319.32), installed via Ubuntu itself (not from NVidia's site); * Dual monitor setup, using separate X servers (one for each monitor). Resolution is the same, but one is rotated 90 degrees. Does this happen when using TwinView instead of two X servers? Yes. Does this happen when not using any monitor rotation? Yes. Have you found any video configuration where this *doesn't* happen? No. The GDB backtrace should be attached to this report. Please let me know if there's more information required or if you have an questions.
