Description Yannick 2017-08-02 18:42:20 UTC
Application: kwin_x11 (5.10.4)

Qt Version: 5.9.1
Frameworks Version: 5.36.0
Operating System: Linux 4.12.3-1-ARCH x86_64
Distribution (Platform): Archlinux Packages

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
I was alt-tabbing between applications (with the "thumbnail" alt-tab style, not sure I translate this word correctly here).

I released the Alt+tab keys, but the "thumbnails" remained on the screen for a few seconds, then kwin crashed.

It happens from time to time, it's quite hard to reproduce.

The crash can be reproduced sometimes.

-- Backtrace:
Application: KWin (kwin_x11), signal: Segmentation fault
Using host libthread_db library "/usr/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

I didn't have this problem when I was using an nvidia discrete GPU, or intel graphics.
It happens since I switched to an AMD discrete GPU.

Unfortunately I can confirm that from the backtrace: the crash is in the driver. Sorry, nothing we can do :-(

Ok, no problem :>

Hopefully, Mesa 17.2 will fix it.

In the meantime, setting the Alt+Tab style to "large icons" (with no thumbnail at all) looks like a good workaround.
