Gentoo (amd64) using: kde-4.9.3 xorg-server-1.13.0 (tried 1.13.1 as well) mesa-9.0 (tried 9.0.1 as well) xf86-video-intel-2.20.13 (tried 2.20.16 as well) hardware is: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 10) If I enable the "cover switch" or "flip swith" effects for alt-tab, I will very often get a crash with alt-tab which ends in the i915_set_vertex_buffers function (line 1000 of gallium/drivers/i915/i915_state.c), trying to dereference a 0x0 buffer. The buffers[0] data structure contains just null pointers, and a stride value of 8, and line 1000 tries to dereference one of them. This may be the cause or the effect, that's not for me to judge :) See attached backtrace. Turning off unredirect fullscreen windows did not affect it (there were some related bugs a year or two ago)
