I'm unhappy to say that this is not an ATI problem. I just switched video cards to an NVIDIA and am still seeing the same crashes.
I'm working my way through the suggestions on the Obtaining Backtraces for X Crashes page but have had no luck so far. Apport doesn't capture anything, running X through gdb locks the machine hard, and setting NoTrapSignals in xorg.conf causes the X crash to take the rest of the system with it. I'm running X through startx now in an attempt to get a core file, but I'm not sure what else I can do if that also fails. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/787207 Title: Intermittant X crash with ATI card, multiple X drivers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/787207/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
