Description Yury 2017-08-31 01:59:39 UTC
Hello
After update skypeforlinux to 8.5.76.55323 I've started to get xorg segfaults when connected to 2 external monitors via docking station.
My setup: Dell XPS 13 9360 + Dell DS1000 USB-C docking station + 2 external FullHD Dell monitors.
In xorg logs I can see:

I'm not facing this issue when I'm not connected to external monitors.

I'm running 4.10.0-33-generic and

xserver-xorg-core-hwe-16.04 - 1.19.3-1ubuntu1~16.04.2
xserver-xorg-hwe-16.04 - 7.7+16ubuntu3~16.04.1
xserver-xorg-video-vesa-hwe-16.04 - 2.3.4-1build3~16.04.1 

Here's my bug on launchpad (I don't believe I can get any help there because gogle says that libpciaccess.so.0  related segfaults is not something usual)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1714122

It's my first bug about xorg. So please forgive if I've did anything wrong and sorry for my English. Any help will be much appreciated.
