Created attachment 107844 Xorg log
My X server is frequently crashing with the error "WaitForSomething(): select: Invalid argument". There has been a previous report on this issue in which the suggested action was to upgrade the synaptics driver (http://lists.x.org/pipermail/xorg/2013-May/055680.html). I am already running a significantly newer driver than the user in that report was, as I'm using 1.7.4.
The crash happens frequently, and mostly random. However I am able to reproduce it on demand by launching the HipChat client. As soon as the app finishes loading and goes to display the main window, X crashes with the mentioned error.
I have attached the Xorg.0.log from a crashed session.
I am using: xorg-server 1.15.0 xf86-input-evdev 2.8.2 xf86-input-synaptics 1.7.4 xf86-video-intel 2.21.15 kernel 3.14.14
