This bug has been affecting me for about 4 weeks now.  Lightdm crashes
on random window opening.  Usually a  thunderbird window.  VERY
frustrating.  I used to go 6 months between restarts.  Now it crashes
every day a few times.

** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => lightdm (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => Confirmed

Title:
  lightdm crashes on window open in Ubuntu 15.10 intel

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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 4.2.0-16-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 8 15:35:06 UTC 2015 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)

  
  [original description below]

  I get crashes, when I open a new window in an already started
  application. It happens irregularely, but I can force the crash if I
  open several new message windows in thunderbird. But it also happens
  in other applilcations, for example a new terminal window.

  This is the output during the crash in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
