Bug Description

As a title, I accidentally crashed with the compositor, with the NVIDIA 390 drivers, I installed unity and no problem, so I confirm that the problem is not the proprietary NVIDIA drivers.

GPU: GTX 750 TI

From the logs I get these errors every time kwin crashes:

It happened again, this time when I opened Steam.
This time I saved the dump file, after the crash logs, I hope it will be useful.

The problem seems to have been resolved by updating the NVIDIA 390.77 drivers from the PPA: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
