Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

After newly updating one of my servers and logging in on the console I see the session and and the gdm prompt return. This occurs after some minutes, so far always when I am not using the machine. Looking at the Xorg.0.log I see a SIGSEGV reported.

Ok watching my machine the screen saver kicked in, the screen faded to black and at that instant died and gem restarted it. So its looking like it is the final act of locking the screen which is taking the server out.

Seems that this may be related to a last minute commit to enable vsync for DRI2 CopyRegion. Testing with some packages containing fixes for that code seems to have fixed my machine.

Switching to fullscreen mode in totem/mplayer/firefox also triggers a crash.

You can install this to fix it as a drop in replacement with no external dependencies until it's fixed in the archive, or just disable compiz in the meantime.

Should be fixed by commit "Fix segfault in DRI2 vblank syncing if the region isn't onscreen", which handles the crtc=0x0 case.
