OK so it might NOT be gnome-related. I've had a few of these crashes using Unity now. Attached is syslog that I was able to get after connecting an HDMI monitor via the external Dell usb-3.1 adaptor which exposes an HDMI port.
Luckily ? while this did crash it didn't kill the machine, so I got the logs. When I tried plugging it into the other port it just died horribly. ** Attachment added: "syslog-fails-when-plugged-into-adaptor" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1559308/+attachment/4606648/+files/syslog-fails-when-plugged-into-adaptor -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1559308 Title: Plugging HDMI screen in causes system hang To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1559308/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
