Aha, looking at issue #109 then checking journalctl I see:
Oct 09 09:34:34 homebase kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version
340.107, but
NVRM: this kernel module has the version
340.106. Please
NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and
all NVIDIA driver
NVRM: components have the same version.
Oct 09 09:34:34 homebase kernel: NVRM: nvidia_frontend_ioctl: minor 255,
module->ioctl failed, error -22
I suspect that maybe an "apt update" ran which installed a new nvidia
driver but I haven't rebooted so the old one is still active? I'll try
rebooting to see if that helps.
I think it would be very helpful if libcogl could be enhanced to report
some sort of error rather than just dumping core...

Title:
Evolution segfaults when NVidia driver is installed but not used
Status in clutter-gtk package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in cogl package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in evolution package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
To use CUDA I have installed the NVidia driver but disabled the card
in the BIOS and set the main output to the onboard GPU. I also edited
the xorg.conf accordingly. Now I can no longer start evolution. It
crashes with a segfault. I cannot reproduce the segfault with other
clutter apps.
Attached is a backtrace of the crash, my xorg.conf, and the Xorg log.
