Yes but no crashes.

Did you upgrade to xorg-x11-server 7.6_1.14.3.901-8.1 ? Regards, R.Chung -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Since you seem to be keeping the driver you use a secret, I'll posit that you are using proprietary nvidia and are having an equivalent problem as a thread recently about Chrom* crashing, where the fix was to rebuild/reinstall the video driver because of the other updates' ancestors the currently installed driver depends on. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

As with ATI and NVidia, Intel has no "the" video. What matters is which of the multitudes of gfxchips the installed and in use software driver supports, readily determined if not known or otherwise readily determined by 'lscpi | grep VGA'. Once the gfxchip is known, it might be determinable whether your problem is one known to be shared by others, and whether a solution is readily available. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

That doesn't return anything. The mom board has the Intel H77 chip set.

I think Felix wanted you to write: /sbin/lspci -nn | grep VGA or su -c "lspci -nn | grep VGA to display your system output Regards, R. Chung -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yes.
Now we can discard it. It was supposed to fix some x.org reported crashes. Let's follow the next step on the thread by displaying your Video graphic adapter and controller as Felix suggested before.

If you read the whole thread you shouldn't think that: lscpi | grep VGA # shell command + s/lscpi/lspci/ # fix misspelling = lspci | grep VGA # fixed shell command e.g. # lspci | grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV34GL [Quadro FX 500/600 PCI] (rev a1) # -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
