[Bug 1645503] Re: System crashes randomly when Konsole is active

[Vianney Stroebel]

It happens when using Gnome Terminal and Terminator too.

** Summary changed:

- System crashes randomly when Konsole is active
+ System crashes randomly when a terminal application is active

** Description changed:

- Since my upgrade to Kubuntu 16.10, system crashes randomly: the screen
- becomes black with only an irregular vertical line on the leftmost side.
- The whole system becomes unresponsive, even the keyboard (no access to
- Ctrl + Alt + F1).
+ Since my upgrade to Kubuntu 16.10, the system crashes randomly when some
+ applications are active: the screen becomes black with only an irregular
+ vertical line on the leftmost side. The whole system becomes
+ unresponsive, even the keyboard (no access to Ctrl + Alt + F1).
  
- Strangely, this only happens when Konsole is active, whatever I may be
- doing in it.
+ This only happens when some specific applications are active, whatever I
+ may be doing in it. So far, this bug has been confirmed in several
+ terminal applications (Konsole, Gnome Terminal, Terminator, QTerminal)
+ as well as Calibre Viewer and Gwenview.
  
  This is making my work very difficult : I have to restart my system and
  all my programming environment several times a day.
