[Bug 376099] [NEW] xserver crash on closing a window

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-180-kernel-source

Symptoms:
Sometimes when closing a window X crashes. X reboots automatically and returns to the login-screen. 

Expected:
Just close the silly window, let X live...

Extra info:
I have had this exact problem in 8.04 (when i ran 180 beta through envy), and now, after the upgrade to Kubuntu 9.04 it is still present, but with the stock nvidia 180.44 driver. Both times I ran/run compiz as provided in the packagelist. I don't know if the cause of the problem is the same, but the symptoms are. This happens very randomly: from never during an entire day, to 5 times during a day (i reboot every working day). The only constant I can think of is that it happens by closing a window (by any means: keybind or mouseclick) provided by the windowmanager.

Hardware:
I am on an Asus V2S laptop (geforce 8600m gs), running nvidia driver 180.44 as provided by the stock package nvidia-180-kernel-source.
