[Viktor Pal <1455916@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Christopher M. Penalver, what I wanted to point out in my last comment is that since I reported this bug I changed to gnome-shell and even updated to 15.10 so I will not be able to help further debugging this issue and of course as this is about metacity and I don't use it any more I have not seen this bug since then.
Of course all new/other xorg related errors have been reported by me in separate new bug tickets as expected.

Would you like me to change the subject of the bug to: "The program
'metacity' received an X Window System error."

  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Xorg unexpectedly crashed bringing down down metacity and gnome-flashback too.
  This is the relevant section from the system logs:

  May 17 15:09:05 ultra-d gnome-session[1514]: backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
