Bug Description
To use CUDA I have installed the NVidia driver but disabled the card in the BIOS and set the main output to the onboard GPU. I also edited the xorg.conf accordingly. Now I can no longer start evolution. It crashes with a segfault. I cannot reproduce the segfault with other clutter apps.
Attached is a backtrace of the crash, my xorg.conf, and the Xorg log.
