Sebastian Rohde, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (2.28). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?
If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status New. Otherwise, please mark this as Invalid. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-2.28 ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1499508 Title: Xorg crashed with SIGABRT in OsAbort() Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Xorg crashed with SIGABRT in OsAbort() ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.10 Package: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.17.2-1ubuntu7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.2.0-11.13-generic 4.2.1 Uname: Linux 4.2.0-11-generic x86_64 .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.18.1-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true CurrentDesktop: GNOME Date: Thu Sep 24 16:36:35 2015 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: wily DistroVariant: ubuntu ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/Xorg GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller [8086:0166] (rev 09) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device [1025:0686] NVIDIA Corporation GK107M [GeForce GT 650M] [10de:0fd1] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Acer Incorporated [ALI] Device [1025:0686] InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-07-23 (63 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-GNOME 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Release amd64 (20150422) MachineType: Acer Aspire V3-771 ProcCmdline: /usr/bin/X vt7 -displayfd 3 -auth /run/user/121/gdm/Xauthority -nolisten tcp -background none -noreset -keeptty -verbose 3 ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.2.0-11-generic root=UUID=1a1aa1e8-8cf6-4f73-9ea6-292462f42001 ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 Signal: 6 SourcePackage: xorg-server StacktraceTop: OsAbort () FatalError () ??
