Public bug reported: I've got problems with the nouveau driver. It makes Plasmashell crash every few minutes. Since I don't know what Plasmashell actually does, I don't know which Plasmashell task crashes. Probably it is related to signaling apt package updates.
I am still trying to fetch a trace. but until now I wasn't able yet to install all necessary -dbg packages. (which -dbg package belongs to libqt5?) nvidia-304 driver does not work at all (blank screen) Hardware: GeForce 7600 GT AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3800+ Via Chipset Asus A8V-VM SE I already thoroughly tested hard-disk and memory, everything OK. If you can suggest a tool for CPU and GFX burn in test... If I remember correctly, I experienced the problem with Kubuntu 14.4 LTS, too. I was able to workaround by installing the the Nvidia driver. This time the Nvidia driver doesn't work either.
