Actually, can failsafe-x be set up to never run unless starting-dm has been
emitted? I see a
initctl emit starting-dm DM=kdm
and a similar line in gdm.conf. I don't know how upstart works, but presumably
one can configure it to only consider running if starting-dm has occurred. That
seems like a more reasonable fix to failsafe X's propensity to start unwanted
and hang machines.

Since failsafe-x was enabled in karmic it starts if gdm is disabled and kdm is
used. (low graphics mode error)
