Andrei Borzenkov, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
better.

As per http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-
support/product/latitude-e5450-laptop/drivers/advanced an update to your
computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (A10). If you update to
this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it
change anything?

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not.
3) Please mark this report Status New. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  X server crash when pasting selection using middle button in Chromium

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
  Release:	14.04

  xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu8.1

  Select any text; use middle button to paste selection in Chromium (I
  observed it pasting in URL bar or in any form text input field,
  including previous attempt to report this bug :) ). Session crashes.

  It does not happen, when either pasting into different application
  (like terminal) or wen use Copy - Paste instead of middle button.

  I noticed it about a week ago, so it must be some recent change; I use
  selection paste often enough to notice something like this before.
