Were you using compositing when this happened? I don't think I was. Hello, Regarding composition, the problem happens both with and without it. I first saw these random kills of X server on a VT switch with KDE "desktop effects" enabled. Turning them off (a few weeks ago) did not make any noticeable difference. The problem does not happen on every VT switch, it is random. (At least on my x200s.) But I have seen it many times by now. Sometimes X gets killed and kdm respawns on exiting suspend-to-ram, perhaps the same problem. Or on using the "switch user" feature in the menu instead of pressing Ctrl-Alt-FN. Looking in /var/log/messages after a recent "killed on resume" incident I spotted lines like kernel: i2c-adapter i2c-2: unable to read EDID block. kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: DVI-D-1: no EDID data may be related to the crash. At least I don't see them for a "good" resume. (I don't use an external monitor, only the built-in LCD.) I'll attache an excerpt of /var/log/messages covering the suspend and resume parts where X was killed on resume. How can I enable extra debug output to have more information after the next crash? Thank you, Andrei Created attachment 354197 [details]
/var/log/messages after X killed on resume
An excerpt from /var/log/messages covering a suspend and resume cycle where KDE session was killed on resume.
I notices the same behavior with Thinkpad R61 and Intel GM965. Issue was solved installing xorg-drv-intel from Rawhide (via rebuilding Rawhide's package, it asker for an upgrade of libdrm). After doing this desktop (KDE) seems stable after numerous suspends (both to disk and to RAM). Michal *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 494411 *** |
Created attachment 350245 [details] Xorg.0.log Description of problem: Running F11, installed from the KDE Live CD on a ThinkPad X200. On switching to VT (Ctrl+Alt+F2) my running KDE session crashed and I was presented the kdm login screen even while I was typing some commands on the VT.
