Proposed fixed the issue of compiz crashing on my machine (Dell Latitude
e5410). Thanks for that. But there is now an issue with video playback
on VLC media player (ver 2.2.2-5ubuntu0.16.04.4). The video hangs every
few seconds. It is only an issue with VLC though as video playback works
fine on other media apps. Tried reinstalling VLC and it still doesn't
work.

I was wondering if others are experiencing the same thing?

Title:
  [regression] compiz crashes after Mesa upgrade

Status in mesa package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in mesa source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed
Status in mesa source package in Artful:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  When I use the Unity session I automatically get logged out under these 
conditions:

      When I hover with my mouse over any icon of the sidebar.
      When I press the alt key.
      When I press the super key.

  running dmesg after this unwanted logout happens I get following
  information:

  compiz[10616]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fbca309feeb sp 00007fff5f59a4d0
  error 4 in i965_dri.so[7fbca2af6000+7e4000]

  This is caused by a mesa upgrade, which added a patch for bug #1727401. The 
crasher is reproduced on:
  - gen4 / gen5 Intel
  - if using modesetting X driver, like when xserver-xorg-video-intel is not 
installed, or the HWE stack is installed (xserver-xorg-core-hwe-16.04 defaults 
to modesetting)

  [Test case]
  Log in to Unity, open the dash or try to log out etc. Compiz shouldn't crash.

  [Regression potential]
  The backported patches need to be tested, here for regressions and on 1727401 
that they fix the original bug (again).

  Best to test on a wide array of Intel HW:
  gen4 (965GM/GM45/G45)
  gen5 (Ironlake)
  gen6 (Sandy Bridge)
  gen7 (Bay Trail, Ivy Bridge, Haswell)
  gen8 (Braswell, Broadwell)
  gen9 (Apollo Lake, Skylake, Gemini Lake, Kaby Lake, Coffee Lake)
