Hello Eric,

It is now coming to the end of 2015.
Can you still reproduce this bug running Frescobaldi 2.18.1+ds1-2ubuntu1 on 
Ubuntu 15.10 (wily)?

Thanks,
Anthony

Title:
When I start Frescobaldi music editor my desktop crashes.

Status in frescobaldi package in Ubuntu:
New

Bug description:
When starting the lilypond music editor "Frescobaldi 2.05" in Ubuntu
12.10, the program loads to the point (I think) of loading the pdf
prieview, then the display system seemingly crashes, and I am brought
back to the lightDM login screen.  I am running xubuntu on a very old
computer: a Pavilion a230n.  I have an nvidia 6200 video card with the
latest proprietary driver (something I need to be able to run certain
other programs).   Previously, before updating from Xubuntu 12.04,
Frescobaldi seemed very stable.

Under advice from people in the questions section, I tried removing
the nvidia drivers and installing Nouveau. I opened Frescobaldi and
got the same crash that I had been experiencing. I then removed
Nouveau, and installed the NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.64 driver that I had
downloaded from the nvidia site. I restarted everything, and started
up Frescobaldi. Same crash.

I then created a new user called "testing."  I restarted my computer
(after its last crash, just to be sure), and then tried running the
installed version (v.2.05). It crashed immediately, exactly the same
as in my own account.

On a hunch, I went to the Frescobaldi editor's website, and downloaded
both v.2.08, and v.1.20 (which I know used to be stable on this
computer). I then changed to each of their folders, and ran each
program locally (./). Both of them caused exactly the same crash.

In terms of reproducing the problem, I only know what it is that I do.
I simply go to Applications => Multimedia => Frescobaldi.  The splash
screen displays, then the editor screen comes up.  When it is fully
loaded, the screen goes black, and after a moment the login screen
loads.

Now, I notice that this same crash occurs at random intervals while
the screensaver is running after locking down my screen.  I will come
back to the screen, but instead of logging into the xscreensaver
authentication box, I find that I am in the lightDM login screen.
Since I am not around when this happens, I have to assume that I am
getting the same kind of crash at random intervals when the
screensaver is running.  After logging into the desktop, there is
always an apport(sp?) crash report which I send in.

I have also installed the gnome desktop, and I get the same crash when
starting Frescobaldi in gnome.
