[Bug 575055] Re: Xserver crash when hitting certain keys while scroll lock is activated
** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel After I upgraded from Karmic to Lucid yesterday, my X server started crashing every couple of minutes. Especially chatting in Skype (instant messaging, not video) seems to trigger this crash. See Xorg.log.0.old. Not sure whether this is related but my scroll lock LED goes on and off erratically and the X server is started on tty1 instead of 7 unless restart kdm is run.

[Bug 575055] Re: Xserver crash when hitting certain keys while scroll lock is activated
Spoke too soon - the crash is still here in maverick. The workaround using startx instead of KDM still works, even though that means no standby, suspend to disk or power management functionality from within KDE. ** Attachment added: Log of crash in maverick https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/575055/+attachment/1713756/+files/Xorg.0.log.old -- Xserver crash when hitting certain keys while scroll lock is activated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575055 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

After more than two days extensive usage, neiter the toggling scroll lock nor the crashes related to pressing certain keys have occurred in maverick, so this bug seems to be fixed in Kubuntu 10.10. -- Xserver crash when hitting certain keys while scroll lock is activated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575055 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've since noticed that the crash only occurs if I start KDE through KDM. Since I started using startx, I haven't seen a single crash. -- Xserver crash when hitting certain keys while scroll lock is activated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575055 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 575055] Re: Xserver crash when hitting certain keys while scroll lock is activated
I have tried several things to work around this problem by now: * adding nomodeset to the kernel parameters in grub * using the vesa driver instead of the intel driver * removing xorg.conf altogether * turning off DRI * disabling scim * using a different user account None of these made a difference - X still crashes whenever the Enter key is hit while scroll lock is behaving erratically. I also tried installing a fresh version of Kubuntu (Lucid, 64bit version this time) to an external harddrive and it did not exhibit the bug. I will try to apply my current configuration to that install over the next few days to see if I can find out what triggers the bug. -- Xserver crash when hitting certain keys while scroll lock is activated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575055 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
