Description sparhawk 2012-11-02 11:03:21 UTC
Application: kwin (4.9.2)
KDE Platform Version: 4.9.2
Qt Version: 4.8.3
Operating System: Linux 3.5.0-17-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu 12.10

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:

System settings > Hardware > Display and Monitor > Size & Orientation > LVDS1 (Connected) > Orientation.
I changed this from "No Rotation" to "Mirror Vertically". After clicking "Apply", the display flashed, the crash window popped up, and the monitor was the same as before the "change".

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:
Application: KWin (kwin), signal: Segmentation fault

Comment 1 Martin Flöser 2012-11-02 11:09:30 UTC
crashes in the driver, not much we can do about that, sorry.

To circumvent the problem press once Alt+Shift+F12 prior to changing the monitor settings. Afterwards you can use the same shortcut again to re-enable compositing.
Comment 2 sparhawk 2012-11-02 11:12:16 UTC
No worries. FWIW, that workaround didn't work for me. It did prevent the crash, but the setting just reverts to "No Rotation" again.
Comment 3 Thomas Lübking 2012-11-02 13:24:47 UTC
bug/defect in driver, bug in libxrandr, bug in the randr kcm or you missed the confirmation dialog.

run "xrandr -o inverted" and see what happens
Comment 4 sparhawk 2012-11-03 00:05:48 UTC
Ah yes, that works fine. Thank you.
Comment 5 Thomas Lübking 2012-11-03 00:13:38 UTC
ok, interesting.
please use "xrandr -q" to determine the exact string of your display (will be sth. around "LVDS1") and use it in
   "xrand --output LVDS1 --rotate inverted"

If that works as well, there might be a bug in the krandr kcm, please file it against that component then (please do not just relable this one, would be too confusing)
Comment 6 sparhawk 2012-11-06 01:17:51 UTC
That does work as well. Should I just replicate the crash then immediately change the component to xrandr?
Comment 7 Thomas Lübking 2012-11-06 01:25:20 UTC
(In reply to comment #6)
> That does work as well. Should I just replicate the crash then immediately
> change the component to xrandr?

No. Do not relabel this bug, but file a new one against krandr, explining in the description what GUI way you attempt to use an fail while flipping with xrandr works.
Also maybe try 90° rotations for the report.
Comment 8 sparhawk 2012-11-06 01:33:03 UTC
Sorry, I was unclear. I meant refile the bug by replicating the crash, then change the component on the new bug.
Comment 9 Thomas Lübking 2012-11-06 06:12:04 UTC
No, the backtrace of kwin is completely irrelevant to the krandr developers.
That's for the moment a problem in the GPU driver (but of course maybe induced by the krandr action if you can perform the xrandr inversion with activated compositing)
Comment 10 sparhawk 2012-11-09 03:08:32 UTC
Thanks. New bug filed against krandr here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309789
