What's your graphics card vendor and driver? 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Mobility Radeon X300] [1002:5460] :~$ lspci -vvnn | grep radeon Kernel modules: radeonfb lsmod | grep radeon radeon 342432 2 drm 96424 3 radeon apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-ati: Installed: 1:6.12.1-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 1:6.12.1-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1:6.12.1-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status Well, I disabled yesterday dektop effects. It seems that kwin is definitely the origin of my troubles as the xserver does not crash anymore. Someone could tell me what I should Check so as to resolve this and get back the desktop effects without any xserver failure? I have heard of some people having problems with Ati drivers and Jaunty. Perhaps your problem is related to the fact that you are using unstable software? In any case I think it would be better to report this problem to Ubuntu developers as - I think - you did not experience the X crashes with stable Ubuntu release. kwin is not the source of your problems. It's the graphics driver which can be seen by the fact that your X server crashes (if X crashes it's X that has a problem). Performance problems related to ATI driver are named in the Kubuntu release note with some hints how to get rid of them: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/9.04-release |
