I recently bought an AMD graphics card and Ardour has been crashing every once in a while after that. In fact, it crashes (when starting) my Plasma Desktop and I have to log in again. (It seems to maybe crash X itself…)
I was going to try to capture some information, but I could only find debug versions for the nightlies (7.0).
Is this a known problem? If so, any solution or workaround? It not, would it be helpful to try to get some GDB log? (And in that case, is there a debug version for 6.9?)
Here is the graphics info:
