You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
X sometimes crashes at random. I get a console for a few seconds then it starts up again to the gdm login window. This is what the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file reports about the crash, everything priror to this has to do with the X startup.
