The logs did not capture the error, do you mind tracking down one with a stack trace? Search /var/log/Xorg* Can you give the xrandr commands you use, for it looks like you have just resized the panning area rather than change the resolution on the display? I am not sure that is what you want. Perhaps an Xorg.log/xrandr from raring might help explain what you want. Signal 6 is SIGBUS, indicative of a GPU hang. That it results in a crash is fixed in current kernels, but the root cause is that something hung your gpu. There should be a /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_error_state containing the debug details. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1197102 Title: Xorg crashed with SIGABRT in raise() Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: this happens on full up to date saucy. if i booted i ended up with just a blinking cursor. I had to switch to vt1, log on and restart lightdm. Than i was able to login and i got this to report the bug. I also got problems when i leave the pc alone and the screen blanks. Than i get only a mousepointer when i move the mouse. if i switch to another VT and than VT7 i instantly see the desktop but it disapears. I must note that i use a xrandr script to get a higher resolution than my screen actualy is but with raring i had no problems with it.
