Public bug reported: CID: 201404-14986 Dell Precision M2800
On this I+A (AMD/ATI Mars XTX [Radeon HD 8790M] [1002:6606]) system, the GStreamer autovideosink plugin does not work well with the proprietary fglrx driver (version 2:15.200-0ubuntu0.5) Steps: 1. Install 14.04.3 + upgrade (3.19.0-30) + fglrx + Checkbox test suite 2. Run "gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! videoconvert ! autovideosink" 3. Run "gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! videoconvert ! ximagesink" Expected result: * A "Bar and static" video test screen will pop up. Actual result: * Only the command in step 3 will work, the command in step 2 does not, it will cause X to crash for sometimes, error log could be found: [ 1494.011] (EE) [ 1494.011] (EE) Backtrace: [ 1494.012] (EE) 0: /usr/bin/X (xorg_backtrace+0x48) [0x7f6b10f1af08] [ 1494.012] (EE) 1: /usr/bin/X (0x7f6b10d7a000+0x1a4f39) [0x7f6b10f1ef39] [ 1494.012] (EE) 2: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x7f6b0eefa000+0x36d40) [0x7f6b0ef30d40] [ 1494.012] (EE) 3: /usr/bin/X (0x7f6b10d7a000+0xa9921) [0x7f6b10e23921] [ 1494.012] (EE) 4: /usr/bin/X (0x7f6b10d7a000+0xaa7db) [0x7f6b10e247db] [ 1494.012] (EE) 5: /usr/bin/X (0x7f6b10d7a000+0xf0d30) [0x7f6b10e6ad30] [ 1494.012] (EE) 6: /usr/bin/X (0x7f6b10d7a000+0x5414e) [0x7f6b10dce14e] [ 1494.012] (EE) 7: /usr/bin/X (0x7f6b10d7a000+0x57f9b) [0x7f6b10dd1f9b] [ 1494.012] (EE) 8: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (__libc_start_main+0xf5) [0x7f6b0ef1bec5] [ 1494.012] (EE) 9: /usr/bin/X (0x7f6b10d7a000+0x4352e) [0x7f6b10dbd52e] [ 1494.012] (EE) [ 1494.013] (EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x1009c9cbc [ 1494.013] (EE) Fatal server error: [ 1494.013] (EE) Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault).

As this issue will cause the camera display test and video test to crash (whitelist test cases), I will mark this bug as a blocker.
