kwin-20110425-135507.kcrash Edit (22.1 KiB, text/plain)

I believe I experienced a very similar crash with KWin. It also ends in the same functions of i915_dri, so this issue is probably related to the intel driver-related stack.
The crash occured after I stopped the Euphoria screensaver (just by moving mouse), right before the normal desktop should appear. KWin restarted automatically, however.

My crash is for Ubuntu 11.04 too, with latest today updates

The crash in KWin is well-reproducible. The crash (or sometimes KDE hang-up) happens each time the screensaver is interrupted. It is necessary to have the option "Suspend desktop effects for fullscreen windows" ticked on (the last KWin settings tab). If this option is turned off, the crashes disappear.

After today update of the intel driver, I experience only X hang-ups instead of crashes (again after the screensaver interrupt, if the "Suspend desktop effects for fullscreen windows" is ticked on).
I now looked in XOrg.0.log and found the following lines there

[ 18468.582] (WW) intel(0): flip queue failed: Device or resource busy
[ 18468.582] (WW) intel(0): Page flip failed: Device or resource busy
and then X hang.

This is probably due to the unstable page flipping in the intel driver and is tied to this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/737602
My video card is 82G33/G31 Express integrated Graphics Controller

However, the crashes do not happen anymore for me, so now I cannot say the page flipping issue is indeed related to this bug.
There may be multiple issues. It is better if the original reporter retests this with compiz.

This doesn't look like a compiz bug to me, and as confirmed by the stacktrace
