Chag's fix worked perfectly for me! I had the exact same problem and setup
* nvidia card with dual monitor, with one monitor rotated * upgraded to Ubuntu Maverick * X started up fine, but when I tried to move any window, the whole X server would segfault I rebuild xserver-xorg-core according to instructions in comment #91 (which I will call the "SHAZAM fix"), and everything's back to normal. I did try for several hours to get XRandR to work, and failed with every combination. It just seems impossible to get it to rotate a single monitor, and have a unified X screen for the whole desktop (i.e. be able to drag windows between monitors). Does anyone know *why* Xinerama is deprecated, since it seems to be the only solution for several uncommon- but-useful desktop setups? -- Launching QT apps under Xinerama crashes Xorg : affects SpeedCrunch, KeePassX, Lucky Backup, Pencil, Stellarium, Skype, Google Earth, VLC, Konqueror, VirtualBox, Opera ... https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/650539 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 : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
