[Bug 1511615] [NEW] xorg crashes on Ubuntu 15.10 with Intel graphics

 

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1509846 ***

Public bug reported:

Symptom: xorg crashes on windows creation

How to reproduce: No 100% reproducibility, however intensively using
2D/3D acceleration triggers the bug (e.g. by opening several new windows
and/or menus in a Unity desktop environment)

Affected hardware: Intel HD Graphics 4400/5000 etc
Affected software:
- kernel Linux 4.2.0-16-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP x86_64
- also affected is kernel Linux 4.2.5-040205-generic x86_64
- Ubuntu 15.10 with Unity (because of compiz 2D/3D acceleration)
- any other software using direct rendering (e.g. VLC)

Workaround:
- Disable window animations in Compiz reduces the frequency of the crashes.
Use compizconfig-settings-manager for this tweak (sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager)
- Use XFCE or LXDE also reduces the frequency of crashes given that these desktop environments are 2D only
