This same thing has happened to me more than once. I was just trying to open OpenOffice and my X session stopped. I was left with a login screen. As you can imagine, this is very annoying.
When I logged back in, I was left with the following in /var/log/syslog: Sep 17 13:45:55 linux13 gdm[4043]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 Sep 17 13:45:55 linux13 kernel: [2342653.228830] pidgin[15703]: segfault at 9728000 ip b7da5253 sp bff87300 error 6 in libX11.so.6.2.0[b7d76000+ea000] -- segv in xserver with xserver-xorg-video-radeon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367567 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
