[Bug 1443485] [NEW] xserver-xorg crash, probably synaptics

 

Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with xserver-xorg-lts-utopic and linux-generic-lts-
utopic installed to even make touchpad work. The system can run for days
without any problems, but sooner or later a spontaneous segfault will
happen and return to the login screen.

xserver-xorg-lts-utopic 1:7.7+7ubuntu2~trusty1
xserver-xorg-input-synaptics-lts-utopic 1.8.1-1ubuntu1~trusty1

Xorg's log also gets filled up with these messages http://codepad.org/dLKc2JJo which makes me suspect Synaptics is to blame for the eventual segfault:

(EE) BUG: ../../src/synaptics.c:2991 in UpdateTouchState()
