Title:
gnome crashes when using qemu display
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Using the qemu vga display under gnome is reliably causing gnome to
crash on my laptop. I've seen this when using libvirt and also when
invoking qemu from the command line. I've tried several display
options for qemu:
-vga qxl
-vga virtio
-display gtk
All result in the crash. No crash report is appearing in /var/crash
after this happens, but I checked dmesg the last time and found this:
[15078.446564] gnome-shell[10327]: segfault at 8 ip 00007f4c53c794af
sp 00007ffd7eb03e90 error 4 in libmutter-cogl-1.so[7f4c53c14000+a5000]
The crash usually doesn't happen right away. Sometimes it happens a
few seconds after the display is opened, other times it's happened
when I've moved to another window and then select the qemu display
using Alt-Tab.
