I would really appreciate if someone can give me a workaround. This bug
makes the whole system unusable since I can lose all my opened documents
any time. Thx for your time.

Title:
  XServer crash logs the user off randomly

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

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

  Indel driver version: xserver-xorg-video-int 2:2.99.914-1~exp amd64

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