Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It sounds like the graphics driver has crashed:

Server aborting To help us find the cause of the crash please follow these steps: 1. Look in /var/crash for crash files and if found run: ubuntu-bug YOURFILE.crash Then tell us the ID of the newly-created bug. 2. If step 1 failed then look at https://errors.ubuntu.com/user/ID where ID is the content of file /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id on the machine. Do you find any links to recent problems on that page? If so then please send the links to us. 3. If step 2 also failed then apply the workaround from bug 994921, reboot, reproduce the crash, and retry step 1. Please take care to avoid attaching .crash files to bugs as we are unable to process them as file attachments. It would also be a security risk for yourself. ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => xorg-server (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: xorg-server (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Also affects: xserver-xorg-video-qxl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-qxl (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1810913 Title: xorg w. QXL driver crashes while using Intellij IDEA or PyCharm Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in xserver-xorg-video-qxl package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: i try to have development VM on my home machine. everything is fine, i use spice/QXL and virt-manager and spice agent for resizing the desktop. surfing w. firefox is working fine and all the x apps i triad are ok. but shortly after starting IDEA or PyCharm X crashes the session. sometimes right after the splash screen. ALWAYS after i click "Open" and scrolling in the directory tree. to narrow down i tried several things: - using the same software version on a physical machine: works - using another graphics driver instead of QXL like cirrus etc: works - created a debian stretch vm with roughly the same software: crashes too so it seems QXL is to blame ...
