Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
X runs for a short while (some minutes, sometimes longer, then crashes to a blank screen. Pressing an arrow key reveals a command-line screen. Attempting to run 'startx' gets a message that x is still running. Rebooting is the only remedy. This is a minimal install with Openbox and xdm. Earlier in the development cycle, it was very solid. Recently (a few weeks) it's been exiting X unexpectedly. No particular pattern is apparent. I installed the xserver version from ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates, which is currently running, and it's made no difference.
