[Bug 585923] Re: [gm45] xserver completely freezes each time when executing paraview

 

Hi!

Sorry for my late reply, others things kept me from more testing. So here is the (hopefully) better report.
As I wrote my system  crashes 100% "reliably" each time I use paraview, load a file, add a cutplane in paraview and try to rotate the object.  Crashes means the following phases:
1. Mouse cursor starts to stutter, indicate high workload.
2. xserver/KDM dies (black screen)
3. Tries to restart xserver/kdm. I see the typical load cursor symbol  (when kdm is usually starting) flickering  on an otherwise black screen.
4. Loading stops and system freezes completely. Just seeing a black screen and a terminal cursor in the upper left corner.
Not possible to change to any other TTY from 1-6. None of the magic key combination works (I tested them also during a normal session, and then they work).
BTW, I get also occasionally a xserver restart when I change to TTY 1-6 (which caused that I had to write this comment twice :)

Use me at your guinea pig and tell  if there is more I can test/crash :) or other information you need.
Cheers,
Andre
