[Bug 742175] Re: [i915] xserver crashes abruptly (OOM?)

 

It looks like your system ran out of memory for whatever reason.  X just
happens to be the first really critical thing to notice that there's no
memory left.  It tends to need memory for doing its stuff.  ;-)  The
reason you can't restart X is because the GPU got left in an
inconsistent state (which is probably a bug in itself, but not the
primary issue here).

But, I can try to help you figure out what actually is causing this bug.
(As it is, the info you've collected doesn't really do much to pinpoint
what's going on.)

Can you tell me a little more about your system.  Are you booted off a
hard drive or usb key or cd?  How long have you been running natty?
When did you start noticing this bug?  Has it happened multiple times?
What is unique or unusual about your system?  Does it always happen
after about the same period of time?  Does running a certain app or
combination of apps make it more likely to crash?

** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
