Description Humberto Jucá 2010-05-27 13:13:53 UTC 
Version:           unspecified
OS:                Linux

KDE will not start if the "composite" is active in S3 cards (Chrome. ..).
The manager is terminated when the management tries to load windows - returning to kdm. The error occurred in the distribution Mandriva 2010 (KDE 4.3) and Ubuntu 4.10 (KDE 4.4.3).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Enable "composite" effects in S3 video card (Chrome driver).

Actual Results:  
KDE crash.

This is an X.org server crash caused by a bug in the Chrome video driver. Please report this to your distribution and/or the X.org project.

Hi, thanks for reply..

The error occurs into a KDE process (that dies). Later I will send you
what error message is returned.
KDE gets to start, but the error happens when it is done checking the
*windows* - a step before loading the entire environment (occur in
start steps/checks).

The Xorg process is not dying.  But, I will report to the Xorg team too.
