Since it happens even with nouveau drivers and old nvidia drivers and only in Xinerama that's probably a problem of xinerama mode itself with some nvidia card instruction, not of nvidia binary drivers.

Same problem here, experienced today DISPLAY=:0.1 xterm ... was working, but I tried with firefox (instead of xterm), since its my usage for 2nd screen (FF visible in all desktops): crashed X I then decided to not use screen1 anymore. Then in the morning, while I was scrolling in FF helding the vertical bar, the mouse pointer got stuck between the two screens (exactly as MikeB), X was 100% CPU. Had to kill it remotely. At lunch break, I xlock-ed my screen as allways, when back, the load was 40+, with tons of kscreenlock spawned, one each minute since lock screens mode are just changing each minute. Had to kill everything again remotely. Finaly, I ripped of any Screen1 or Device1 or Monitor1 in my xorg.conf, then the 2nd monitor is completely inactive and unconsidered. Since then, everything works fine, except my second monitor is off :/ Hope this helps. I have some log files of everything here, I can send it,if it is of any use.

[Bug 650539] Re: Launching QT apps such as SpeedCrunch, keepassX, Lucky Backup, Pencil, Stellarium, skype, VLC crashes Xserver
After spending some time working with my two monitors in TwinView mode, i realized that it's not a solution - it's definitely not a replacement for Xinerama, so... I decided to get that Xinerama mode that worked for me (in 10.04) before i had updated to 10.10 back :) As Laurent mentioned above, a possible workaround to fix that issue is to rollback to old versions of some packages... Actually, the only packages i reverted were: xorg, xserver-xorg, xserver-xorg-core, xserver-xorg-input-evdev, xserver-xorg-input-mouse, xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse, xserver-xorg-video-nv (i have installed versions from 10.04 via dpkg). Once reverted, those seem to work fine in Xinerama mode and latest nVidia drivers included in 10.10 (that is, 260.10.06). To get those packages, do the following: Open terminal and execute the following command (will download those packages into tmp dir and install them, you'll have to input root-pass to confirm installation): mkdir /tmp/xpackages cd /tmp/xpackages wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/43485102/xorg_7.5%2B5ubuntu1_i386.deb http://launchpadlibrarian.net/43485099/xserver- xorg_7.5%2B5ubuntu1_i386.deb http://launchpadlibrarian.net/52260944 /xserver-xorg-core_1.7.6-2ubuntu7.3_i386.deb http://launchpadlibrarian.net/42588308/xserver-xorg-input- evdev_2.3.2-5ubuntu1_i386.deb http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36552692 /xserver-xorg-input-mouse_1.5.0-1_i386.deb http://launchpadlibrarian.net/45024060/xserver-xorg-input- vmmouse_12.6.5-4ubuntu2_i386.deb http://launchpadlibrarian.net/37545335 /xserver-xorg-video-nv_2.1.15-1ubuntu3_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i *.deb There's a drawback though: after installing those mentioned above packages via dpkg lot of broken packages (a bit more than 30 in my case) appears - namely, all xserver-xorg-input-* and all xserver-xorg- video-*... Here's how you fix that: open Synaptic and use Edit - Fix Broken Packages feature, then apply changes - it will notify you it wants to remove lot of packages - mostly those broken ones and probably few more, but seems to not touch anything important (in my case it listed xbmc- standalone only) - anyway, you may want to log those packages to re- install them later. Now, as you have removed broken packages, you must reinstall downloaded xserver/xorg (from 10.04) again as they were removed too. Just run the following command in console: cd /tmp/xpackages sudo dpkg -i *.deb Now you may open Synaptic again and re-install those removed packages (like xbmc, etc.) that you logged earlier. After that you should have working and clean system! ;) The last thing is: protect those old packages from auto-updating (otherwise you'll get this X-crash-issue back). In Synaptic, select each of those packages you have reverted and choose Package - Lock Version for each of them. Now you can update whenever you wish (when update-manager notifies you about fresh updates) and all packages except those with locked versions will be updated as usually. That's it. Sorry if it looks messy, but it worked for me, so i decided to share my solution.

This works (xterm loads on the 3rd monitor), however KDE doesn't appear to be running on the 3rd monitor, so there is essentially no window manager, making it pretty useless. :( From what I can obtain from Google, KDE4+ doesn't support separate X displays like this.

I can also verify this issue. My triple monitor setup using Xinerama was working perfectly using the most recent Nvidia drivers under 10.04. Upon the upgrade to 10.10, I started receiving the segfault when starting X. Disabling Xinerama allows me to run X, but is not a long term solution. Likewise, using TwinView is not an option for me as the two 20.1 monitors connected to one video card are separated by a 30 monitor connected to the other (which requires full use of the other video card for dual-link DVI). The only real solution for creating a single, uninterrupted, physical desktop is Xinerama.

Updated from 10.04 to 10.10. Multi-monitor (namely, two monitors), Separate X Screens, Xinerama Enabled. X restarts when moving the mouse over the window. No matter what desktop environment is used - crashes in any case (i have tried KDE/GNOME/Xfce/WindowMaker). X does not crash, though, if I login using Safe Mode. -- Launching QT apps such as SpeedCrunch, keepassX, Lucky Backup, Pencil, Stellarium, skype, VLC crashes Xserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/650539 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to qt4-x11 in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Same for me with 10.10, nvidia driver (latest) with Xinerama. Applications like keepassx, vlc and skype crash X. -- Launching QT apps such as SpeedCrunch, keepassX, Lucky Backup, Pencil, Stellarium, skype, VLC crashes Xserver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/650539 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
