The new packages do seem to help! :-) I downloaded and installed the new libxrandr2 packages (i386 and amd64) from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxrandr and they do indeed seem to resolve this issue.
I have logged in via vnc and tested change of desktop resolution via xrandr -s. Kwin did not crash any more, nor did kded4. Very nice. I hope it works for all of you logging in via NX. (I recently gave up completely on NX and x2go since there is always something not working, like authentication for some system settings...) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to libxrandr in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/985202 Title: libx11 causes kwin to crash on login (over NX protocol) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xorg-server/+bug/985202/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
