Public bug reported:

Hi,

I just upgraded from Gutsy to Hardy. When I use firefox to access
http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/4986 (either by entering the address
in the address line or by clicking on it, see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/209553 'assigned
to' for the link), the Xserver crashes and I'm thrown back to the login
screen. All other pages I accessed so far work ok.

/var/log/messages:
Apr 25 11:49:13 terra kernel: [60252.182785] Xorg[5253]: segfault at 0000011b 
eip b6e10a70 esp bffb9590 error 4
Apr 25 11:49:13 terra kernel: [60252.238802] compiz.real[7016]: segfault at 
050afff8 eip 08055a80 esp bfc7e570 error 4

I've turned off the desktop effects via system/preferences/appearance,
same result. I'm using the proprietary Nvidia drivers in a dual-monitor
setup. This failure does *not* occur on my notebook (which I also
upgraded to Hardy) with an Intel graphics chipset.

Please let me know what extra information I should provide.

cheers, a.
