Description Bryan Quigley 2010-09-26 20:07:55 UTC
To reproduce just open something that will ask for permissions. I choose synaptic.  It crashes on the fadeout to ask for a password.

It doesn't look like it's crashing in nouveau. You could get debug symbols for your X server and try to reproduce the crash with gdb attached, that would get you a more meaningful backtrace.

It appears to be fixed in the latest git...
