To make sure its no configuration issue, I deleted ~/.kde/share/config/kwinrc to start with a default configuration. I can work-around the crash by using: martin@merkaba:~/.kde/env> cat fix-kwin-intel-gl.sh #!/bin/sh export KWIN_DIRECT_GL=1 This didn´t happen with mesa 7.10 and some preliminary mesa 7.11 beta version. This also doesn´t happen on a second KDE session started after this first one - I have one user for private and one for work things. - Software in use: merkaba:~> apt-show-versions | egrep "(kde-window-manager|kdebase|libqt4-gui|mesa|libdrm|xserver-xorg/|xserver-xorg-core/|xserver-xorg-video-intel)" kde-window-manager/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-2 kdebase-apps/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-1 kdebase-bin/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-1 kdebase-data/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-1 kdebase-dbg/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-1 kdebase-runtime/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-1 kdebase-runtime-data/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-1 kdebase-runtime-dbg/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-1 kdebase-workspace/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-2 kdebase-workspace-bin/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-2 kdebase-workspace-data/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-2 kdebase-workspace-dbg/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-2 kdebase-workspace-kgreet-plugins/sid uptodate 4:4.6.5-2 libdrm-intel1/sid uptodate 2.4.26-1 libdrm-radeon1/sid uptodate 2.4.26-1 libdrm2/sid uptodate 2.4.26-1 libgl1-mesa-dev/sid uptodate 7.11-5 libgl1-mesa-dri/sid uptodate 7.11-5 libgl1-mesa-dri-dbg/sid uptodate 7.11-5 libgl1-mesa-glx/sid uptodate 7.11-5 libgl1-mesa-glx-dbg/sid uptodate 7.11-5 libglapi-mesa/sid uptodate 7.11-5 libglu1-mesa/sid uptodate 7.11-5 libglu1-mesa-dev/sid uptodate 7.11-5 mesa-common-dev/sid uptodate 7.11-5 mesa-utils/sid uptodate 8.0.1-2+b1 xserver-xorg/sid uptodate 1:7.6+8 xserver-xorg-core/sid uptodate 2:1.11.0-1 xserver-xorg-video-intel/sid uptodate 2:2.16.0-1 merkaba:~> cat /proc/version Linux version 3.0.0-1-amd64 (Debian 3.0.0-3) (ben@decadent.org.uk) (gcc version 4.5.3 (Debian 4.5.3-8) ) #1 SMP Sat Aug 27 16:21:11 UTC 2011 - Hardware in use: ThinkPad T520 with Sandybridge graphics: merkaba:~> lspci -nn 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family DRAM Controller [8086:0104] (rev 09) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0126] (rev 09) 00:16.0 Communication controller [0780]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family MEI Controller #1 [8086:1c3a] (rev 04) 00:19.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection [8086:1502] (rev 04) 00:1a.0 USB Controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #2 [8086:1c2d] (rev 04) 00:1b.0 Audio device [0403]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller [8086:1c20] (rev 04) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 1 [8086:1c10] (rev b4) 00:1c.1 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 2 [8086:1c12] (rev b4) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 4 [8086:1c16] (rev b4) 00:1c.4 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 5 [8086:1c18] (rev b4) 00:1d.0 USB Controller [0c03]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family USB Enhanced Host Controller #1 [8086:1c26] (rev 04) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge [0601]: Intel Corporation QM67 Express Chipset Family LPC Controller [8086:1c4f] (rev 04) 00:1f.2 SATA controller [0106]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family 6 port SATA AHCI Controller [8086:1c03] (rev 04) 00:1f.3 SMBus [0c05]: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family SMBus Controller [8086:1c22] (rev 04) 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205 [8086:0085] (rev 34) 05:00.0 Mass storage controller [0180]: Silicon Image, Inc.

Thanks. I reported this downstream as: kwin: crashes on login (sandybridge/mesa7.11/blur effect) http://bugs.debian.org/640799
Errrmmm this is unlikely a good general downstream solution since eg. afaik fglrx will segfault with indirect rendering. Recent kwin version (git master) removed the user choice altogether and enforce direct/indirect rendering depending on backend (4.7 has 3 GL paths) and driver (since only the nvidia css driver can actually do both w/o crashing) a) can you test 4.7 (or even git master) b) what's the output when starting kwin from konsole resp. "glxinfo | grep -iE '(renderer|vendor)'
Thomas, what solution do you mean? I did not suggest any concrete solution, just gave all the pointers to possibly relevant information regarding the issue. Its up to the Debian developers to decide for the best possible solution. a) Although I have a pretty fast ThinkPad T520 with Intel SSD 320 its a question of time spent. I never compiled KDE myself before so I nonetheless likely need some time to get a test setup running. Debian packages of 4.7 do not seem to be available ATM. b) martin@merkaba:~> glxinfo | grep -iE '(renderer|vendor)' server glx vendor string: SGI client glx vendor string: Mesa Project and SGI OpenGL vendor string: Tungsten Graphics, Inc OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile Actually I do think that mesa drivers should reliably advertise their features. Client software guessing driver capabilities from vendor and renderer strings does seem like a workaround for me. So if mesa drivers do not advertise features reliably via a good API, then possibly its best to report there first?
- I was referring to the "export KWIN_DIRECT_GL=1" solution - At least 4.7 should be available in binary form, yeso? - In an ideal world. In the real world things are advertised but not available, available but not advertised and advertised and available but broken (indirect rendering should always work) - at least under some conditions.... There's also more than mesa. :-( That discussion however took place when 4.6 was released and the current checks are far more broad. (Mesa & Nvidia are assumed to support direct rendering unless the driver fails to create such context altogether)
I saw "export KWIN_DIRECT_GL=1" as a work around, not a solution. For Debian 4.7 is not yet available in binary form. I also do not find a KDE 4.7 live cd ATM: http://dewiki.opensuse.org/KDE_Live still lists 4.6.5 as latest version. Hmmm, Chakra might be providing a LiveCD image at: http://chakra-project.org/get/ Might try that as I manage to take time for this.
