[Bug 224966] Re: segfault in Xorg, gdm, compiz on scroll with firefox/webmail

[Cinar Sahin]

I tried disabling compiz and enabling compiz. Crash still occurred with
no report. I then tried on a third system with an nvidia graphics card
using the 96.* drivers, firefox did not crash in that setup.

Then I tried uninstalling the nVidia drivers and the crash stopped
happening (on both systems that were crashing).

The crash must due to the Nvidia drivers, but I still can't explain why
firefox is the only application that is triggering the crash.

I am marking the gdm bug as invalid. Please advise on how we can get
backtraces or crash reports through apport. I do get a /var/crash/.lock
file but nothing else.

- segfault in Xorg, gdm, compiz on scroll with firefox/webmail
