They all show common patterns such as: - Intel graphic cards - Ubuntu 15.10 - Unity desktop environment - Xorg crashes while opening applications windows or menus such as in thunderbird/libreoffice/etc. >From my findings, a temporary workaround to prevent X from crashing while opening windows/menus is to disable window animations in Compiz. Use compizconfig-settings-manager for this tweak (sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager). You can also use desktop environments such as XFCE and LXDE which do not use compiz. After upgrading to kernel 4.3 I didn't run into this issue for several (5) days. Kernels can be downloaded from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ Please join me in testing is this bug has been fixed upstream.
