Yes, if gdm restarts, that's probably a real crash. /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old should contain a possibly interesting backtrace at the end (Xorg0.log is saved in .old when X restarts). Remember to save Xorg.0.log.old next time such a gdm restart occurs. > The second one, when the new X server starts, may well be a lockup as > you say.

Yes, that's a lockup and we need to look at the first crash first. The lockup could just be caused by the first crash leaving the hardware page table in a bad state (even if we might say that the driver should be able to cleanup this mess on startup). Brice
