The X crash happens when using the cirrus X driver. For KVM there is a
new modeset driver in Quantal which should avoid this but there are
currently races which cause that not to load properly (see bug
#1038055). However the same problem hits Xen HVM guests and for those
(and likely all real hw using that chip, if such still exist) it would
be good to fix the cirrus X driver to work with the software emulated
acceleration. Previously we would run unity2d and be ok.
