[Bug 650539] Re: Launching QT apps under Xinerama crashes Xorg : affects SpeedCrunch, KeePassX, Lucky Backup, Pencil, Stellarium, Skype, Google Earth, VLC, Konqueror, VirtualBox, Opera ...

 

William King:

>From what I was able to accomplish, I think there's some confusion here.

The relevant package isn't xserver-xorg (which, after closer inspection
is actually version 1:7.5) but xserver-xorg-core (and related packages,
which come from source package xorg-server (confusing, I know)).
Applying the patch (that's already been provided upstream,
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=78f94f19aab66a1e5331df0ce29f36e310b4195d)
to the xorg-server package, compiling, and installing the resultant
packages from that that I needed (nowhere near all of them) fixed the
problem for me.

As a convenience to anyone else having this problem, I've put my patched
package in a PPA.  Please feel free to use it, as I think it will
resolve your problems.
