I am also experiencing what appears to be the same issue, however not only with Skype and Opera, but also with MusicBrainz Picard, VLC and VirtualBox (non-OSE). If I launch VLC from the command line with cvlc, the video opens in a window with no sound, but launching standard vlc crashes, apparently when you move the mouse over the VLC GUI. Similarly, I can open VirtualBox, but as soon as I mouse over its GUI the system crashes. Every time the system crashes, I get kicked back to the GDM login screen. If there are any logs that would help out, let me know and I'll dig them up. -- skype (and others) cause complete crash of xorg on startup/IO activity https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/657963 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
