<pre wrap="">hello,
there always been problem with nvidia proprietary driver. On 12.10, i
was not able to start audacity.
i don't know about skype.
i think i read somwhere that the intel GPU drivers was completely
rewriten, so that's certainly the cause of the bug. since it affect
lot's of people i hope that the ubuntu team will find a workaround or
jump back to the old version quite quickly.
but yes, the "wait few weeks before updating" rules is still valid.
cheers

<pre wrap="">Here with (to use Intel graphics):

it is OK.
But with (to use NVidia):
$ optirun skype
Skype crash.
But with Pd, it is different : Pd crash X server even with or without
optirun as describe Cyrille in his previous message (when you open a
big
(?) patch and start to add object that contains more than 3 letters).
If you start a patch from scratch, you can create several objects
without problem...

Someone has found a solution for this X crash ?

Not a real solution, but I found the reason for the crashes was the
intel driver for me, so I replaced it by an older one.<br>
<br>
I am still using ubuntu 12.04, but I installed newer intel drivers
from a ppa some time ago and suddenly got the same problem as users
updating to 13.04.<br>
<br>
for me the reason was this package (has newer driver sources than
12.04):<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://launchpad.net/~glasen/+archive/intel-driver/+sourcepub/3088701/+listing-archive-extra">https://launchpad.net/~glasen/+archive/intel-driver/+sourcepub/3088701/+listing-archive-extra</a><br>
<br>
I downgraded to the regular 12.04 package for the intel driver and
the x crashes were gone. maybe it's possible to install the package
from 12.04 on a 13.04 installation?<br>
<br>
got mine from here...
