I'm recently seeing this crash every now and then when using Alt+Tab. I haven't found a way to properly reproduce it yet - it could be connected to having (un-)plugged a screen before using Alt+Tab, but I'm not sure. Maybe the BT already points to something obvious, otherwise I'll try to find a way to reproduce it.

did you update Qt recently? What strikes me as odd is that Qt calls glXSwapBuffers with a null dpy.
(In reply to Martin Gräßlin from comment #1) > did you update Qt recently? What strikes me as odd is that Qt calls > glXSwapBuffers with a null dpy. Yes, I'm on Qt 5.4.0 alpha, but all frameworks components + runtimes (incl. kwin) have been rebuilt after that.
It's because of the screen setup alteration: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-32681 It's also (likely) because of QWindow::screen() is 0x0 - this sounds familiar (there must be another bug around this, but I can't find it)
@Thomas: This one? https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-39996
:-P kde bug #336511, yes. Thanks!
