I dont have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. Still, my /var/log/Xorg.0.log
states that the accel method used is indeed SNA. In which file can I
specify the "uxa" parameter?

     [    36.193] (II) intel(0): SNA initialized with Haswell (gen7.5,
gt2) backend

It's using /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/*, but there's no file in there
that would contain a "Device" section.

Should I create a Xorg.conf file in /etc/X11/ from scratch and put that
in it?

Section "Device"
    Identifier "intel"
    Driver "intel"
    BusID "PCI:0@0:2:0"
    Option "AccelMethod" "UXA"
EndSection

Title:
  XServer crash logs the user off randomly

Status in xserver-xorg-video-intel package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  System: Ubuntu 14.04, running cinnamon, on a Dell M3800.

  The bug happens randomly and logs off the user, who loses everything in the current session.
  It happens mostly when a new window is openned, especially terminals (but not only).

  >  cat /proc/version_signature 
  Ubuntu 3.16.0-41.57~14.04.1-generic 3.16.7-ckt11

  The same happens with the latest 3.16.0-43 kernel. Here's what I found
  in the Xorg.0.log.old file:
