[Bug 650539] Re: Launching QT apps under Xinerama crashes Xorg : affects SpeedCrunch, KeePassX, Lucky Backup, Pencil, Stellarium, Skype, Google Earth, VLC, Konqueror, VirtualBox, Opera ...

[JMason]

The patch also appears to be working for me.

The steps I used were:
sudo apt-get source xserver-xorg-core

cd xorg-server-1.9.0

# edited Xext/panoramiXprocs.c

#install debuild
apt-get install devscripts

# installed dependencies
sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-core

# uninstall nvidia's provided binary driver (from their website)
sudo nvidia-uninstall (didn't need to kill X after this)

#build the DEB packages
debuild -us -uc -i

cd ..

#install modified xorg-core
dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.9.0-0ubuntu7_amd64.deb

# reboot

# reinstall NVidia binary driver
sudo sh ./NVidia........
