fullscreen in failsafe and it works. A switch to fullscreen in KDE or any other window manager like IceWM crashes. I disabled some of the window behaviours and it improved the problem a bit. I can resize any openGL window like glxgears, maximize it even, minimize all in KDE and it works. However doing something as simple as moving the window by clicking and holding the titlebar or a switch to fullscreen and the app crashes hard causing the display to terminate pushing my session to close. I'd like add that once this problem occurs once, if I do not FULLY restart the computer the graphic engine of X seems to get a little messed. If I cause this crash being discussed then log back in and try running glxgears my FPS goes from 600+ before crash to 3-5fps after crash. I cannot switch to any other terminals (Ctrl+Alt+1-6), if I do all I see is a mess of colors. During the shutdown process the screen just goes into funky colors. It seems that if I cause this error X becomes very unhappy with graphics. I am a comp sci major and Im pushing in game development. Having a laptop which cannot run OGL in Linux (my fav programming environment) will cause me some problem. I have no need to play games in Linux that is what Windows OS is for. Well I am patiently waiting for this X update. Where should I report this bug? X.ORG? Thanks, Halsafar |

Okay, but still... Window manager is envolved when you toggle between window
and full screen. It has to be some instruction that window managers call that is triggering the crash. Anyway, the one to blame is the driver. Really, if it happens in so different window manager as kwin and metacity, it got to be the driver. To report bugs, just go to the X.org website, that is, well, X.org . You might want to submit your bug to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ , but I'd first advice you to share it in a mailing list (http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/). Not sure which one would be the most appropriate... Anyway, I'm pretty sure it is fixed in this new major release. It just is a too big bug to pass through.
