Unfortunately it is not that well-defined. This is mainly a race condition between loading DRM modules (such as nvidia) and gdm starting up. So this should mainly be tested by people who are affected by this bug, i. e. they do not get X start up, or with only the framebuffer driver (meaning no 3D a

I have some new clues on my crashes! First, Martin's changes to my gdm.conf as mentioned in comment #67 did not fix all for me, as I just had a few more crashes.

@Jamie I think the fact that you haven't been getting VT1 starts confirms that the /etc/init/gdm.conf fix is effective. Those logs look like the ones you posted in comment #69 and comment #98 of bug #625239. You are running on a good virtual terminal rather than VT1 or VT2 and you get just the he

Jamie, well, it could be that you actually only get a crash later on, when gdm starts X.org on the framebuffer driver, and nvidia (or fglrx, etc.) only gets loaded later on. So it would crash when you try to start a 3D application, etc. However, by looking at "glxinfo" or just the X server look i
