I just got this bug today after a fresh install of Tribe 5 Gusty Gibbon Alt x86.iso. I installed the system, and when I tried to login at the xserver(GDM?) menu it would not log in, it would try and then instead it would return to the login menu. I booted to a # and applied all availiable dist-upgrade updates after an apt-get update, still no luck. I sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop. Choose KDE instead of GDM. Still no luck at login. I then sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop still no luck. I checked for all dist-upgrades and updates and applied them. Tried to login again no luck. Next, I installed fluxbox(probably not really related to the problem), still no login. Choose KDE from the login menu and it tried to login but it instead returned to login screen. Tried to login KDE again and this time it worked, then told me a had a bug/crash and this is the comment after the report I sent. So please open the bug again. If this is what causes the xsystem not to work, because that has been a problem with most of the versions I have used, it's only a matter of time before I install or update something that causes xwindows to stop working. Thanks.
