Description Rohan Garg 2013-02-20 17:38:35 UTC 
Application: kwin_gles (4.10.00)
KDE Platform Version: 4.10.00
Qt Version: 4.8.5
Operating System: Linux 3.8.0-6-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu Raring Ringtail (development branch)

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
Trying to switch windows using Atl+Tab

- Unusual behavior I noticed:
KWin crashed when I try to use alt+tab, everything else works fine. Crash only happens when using compositing.

- Custom settings of the application:
Nothing apart from some custom shortcuts and the usual set of kwin plugins

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:
Application: KWin (kwin_gles), signal: Aborted
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".

Hotfix

The flags are only to marks a clear driver issue.

You run the current git master, not 4.10.
Attached is a patch to fix the issue (in two dimensions)

RR later, but if it compiles it will work ;-)
Comment 2 Rohan Garg 2013-02-20 18:55:32 UTC 
Thanks Thomas!
The fix does work for me, no more crashes :)

PS: Yeah, I didn't know the flag was for driver issues and thought Dr. Konqui would have chosen the right version automagically.
Comment 3 Martin Flöser 2013-02-20 19:13:51 UTC
