Ben, thanks for the additional info and for offering to help resolve this bug.
You and others have confirmed that the crash does not occur on newer release of Ubuntu. Can you install the HWE updates and see if an updated Intel video driver for 14.04 resolves this for you? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack for more information. Specifically, you will want to install the following packages: linux- generic-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-core-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-video-all-lts-vivid xserver-xorg-input-all-lts-vivid libwayland-egl1-mesa-lts-vivid. ** Changed in: octave (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313952 Title: octave-cli: ../../../../../../../src/mesa/drivers/dri/i965/brw_eu_emit.c:267: validate_reg: Assertion `execsize >= width' failed.
