Just realised I commented on the duplicate of this bug, here we go again: ---
I am also experiencing what appears to be the same issue, however not only with Skype and Opera, but also with MusicBrainz Picard, VLC and VirtualBox (non-OSE). If I launch VLC from the command line with cvlc, the video opens in a window with no sound, but launching standard vlc crashes, apparently when you move the mouse over the VLC GUI. Similarly, I can open VirtualBox, but as soon as I mouse over its GUI the system crashes. Every time the system crashes, I get kicked back to the GDM login screen. If there are any logs that would help out, let me know and I'll dig them up. -- skype (and others) cause complete crash of xorg on startup/IO activity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/657966 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
