[Bug 1861609] Re: [focal] Xorg crashed with assertion failure (usually in a VM) at [privates.h:121: dixGetPrivateAddr: Assertion `key->initialized' failed] and call stack comes from DRIMoveBuffersHelp
journalctl attached. I had a few attempts at logging in at 11:37 or so, which gave me no clue as to what was going on, so I moved to a TTY and poked around for a bit. Googling took me to https://ubuntu-mate.community/t/20-04-workaround- for-xorg-crashes-to-login-prompt-in-virtual-machines/21368. As you can see, I removed gstreamer1.0-vaapi at 11:55 May 27 11:55:12 lurcher sudo[9109]:steve : TTY=tty2 ; PWD=/home/steve/.local/share/xorg ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/apt-get purge gstreamer1.0-vaapi That seemed to do the trick - I was able to login after a reboot. (I then made the fatal error of turning on autologin for my account and found I was back at the same issue of not being able to get past the login screen the following morning but I believe that's a different bug).

I installed the 20.04 Gnome ISO this morning - direct to disk - not in a VM. No issues during the installation but upon rebooting I couldn't get past the login screen. I'd enter my password and the screen would flicker and I'd be put back to the login page. Switching to a terminal and looking at the Xorg log showed me that it was crashing.

Just want to add that there's a key in gconf that let's you change that to using ALT+right mouse button instead: Or, we could just sort out the fundamental problem with resizing a window by using the time-honoured tradition of grabbing a reasonable chunk of the bottom left corner and dragging the bugger. Give us a decent chunk to grab and we will. I use my laptop with both a trackpad and a logitch thumbwheel trackball. Both options are painful to use under Ubuntu and utterly fine under Windows. I don't think it's a lot to ask to give someone more than 1 or 2 pixels to hit on a 1900 pixel width screen. In all honesty, I'm utterly stunned that fundamental issues like this and hundreds of other are complaining about aren't resolved yet... it's a papercut and STILL we're banging on about it... -- Steve When one person suffers from a delusion it is insanity.
