Comment 1 Jack 2015-08-02 19:44:13 UTC
I would suggest looking for help on an Ubuntu mailing list or forum.  I don't know how KHelpCenter crashed if you were trying to change a resolution setting for the display.  However, one thing to try is making sure /etc/X11/xorg.conf either does not exist or is set up correctly for your hardware.  Also one additional question - are you saying that X starts correctly but setting the resolution is a problem because that window is too large for your displayed screen?  If so, do any other programs work OK or are all of them too large?
Comment 2 Pino Toscano 2016-03-12 22:54:52 UTC
Hi,

I cannot tell about the screen setting issues; judging the backtrace pasted, this could seem something I fixed in khelpcenter 5.5.5 (commit 1720755511827adc5325f2613910a71f0134ba34). Can you please check whether khelpcenter still crashes for you?
Comment 3 Luigi Toscano 2018-09-19 21:46:11 UTC
I suspect that the issue was fixed long time ago. Feel free to reopen if you still see it.
