Bug#677206: xserver-xorg-video-intel: Segfault with missing driver name in xorg.conf



Hi!

I'd like to confirm that I was getting the same segfault:

[    93.128] Backtrace:

Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support 
         at http://wiki.x.org
 for help. 
[    93.129] Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information.

and my Device section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf is also empty:

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

I've found this bug report only after I've worked around the bug by downgrading
from xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.19.0-2_amd64.deb to xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.19.0-1_amd64.deb

An additional detail is that in my case, this bug was manifesting in a nasty way of rapidly launching lots and lots of instances of Xorg processes, which were trying to allocate new TTYs, and the conputer was hanging.

My hardware is: video integrated into Intel Core i5-2310, and motherboard is ASUS P8Z77-V PRO.

Best wishes,
Vladimir
