ok, right now getting X to freeze/lock up instead of exit when starting
xterm. tested in gnome-panel, gnome-shell, and unity sessions
also seeing this in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old (should
correspond to gnome-panel and unity attempts, respectively):
/var/log/Xorg.0.log:

Nothing particularly unusual I think... gfx card is a ATI Technologies

part of setup is 1920x1080 laptop screen attached to 1920x1200 monitor.
Definitely no idea why malloc would fail.
This worked in oneiric until around whe
Hmm, the code is failing on this line in exa_migration_mixed.c in the
server:
pExaPixmap->sys_ptr = malloc(pExaPixmap->sys_pitch *
pPixmap->drawable.height);
However the backtrace doesn't indicate what the values are for sys_pitch
or drawable.h
** Description changed:
As of relatively recently in onieric, if I run xterm, my X session ends
abruptly.
tested with gnome-shell's alt+f2 runner as well as running from within a
gnome-terminal command line.

not sure if related, but as of today* noticing weird potentially damage-
related issues in gnome-terminal/chromium-browser:
if i have two tabs open and switch between them, the terminal/tab
display doesn't always update. Sometimes only the tab contents get
repainted, sometimes only the tab itself

@Joe, could you collect a full backtrace on this bug? I think it'd
provide some better details than was captured in that log.
See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing for guidance on collecting
backtraces. In this case I think skip the apport bits, and use gdb
directly.

@Thomas, it does sound like a compiz bug, however "CompositorRunning:
None" indicates no compiz. (I thought that would detect gnome-
shell/mutter too but perhaps not). In any case, GdmLog2.txt shows:
*** glibc detected *** /usr/bin/Xorg: free(): corrupted unsorted chunks:
0x02b844c0 ***

The description I read of it sounded as if it uses much of the same code.
(I would comment directly on it, but 11.04 is the latest Ubuntu I've
installed so far, and it refused to run Unity in a VM

Are you using lightdm or gdm?
Can you attach your .xsession-errors file from after reproducing the

You mentioned the regression started just recently; could you narrow
down on a date range? We haven't had much change in X, so it's possible
the bug is due to something else; knowing roughly w
