[Possible Workaround] Dell Inspiron 1100 -intel 82845G/GL (on Lucid 10.04) [Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset Integrated Graphics Device (rev 03)]
Hacked at this for several days now. Been working mainly in gnome- terminal & firefox for more than 12 hours straight w/out a single crash. I think I have a workaround from a fresh apt-get dist-upgrade at 6AM this morning. These are the only changes I've made: Reinstalled xulrunner (might not matter) ... apt-get install --reinstall xulrunner-1.9.2 apt-get install --reinstall xulrunner-1.9.2-gnome-support apt-get remove xulrunner-1.9.1 Added to xorg.conf under Monitor0 (might not matter) ... HorizSync 31.5-48.5 VertRefresh 59-75 added to grub ... video=LVDS-1:e video=VGA-1:d i915.modeset=0 Turned off Screen Saver and Power Management And finally ... the big workaround ... Removed the >>> Shockwave Flash <<< plugin from Firefox 3.6.3. firefox-bin was flooding .session-errors ... since removing flash, very few firefox-bin errors. I'm still getting random .xsession-errors from polkit-gnome-authentication-agent, gnome-terminal, firefox-bin, rhythmbox ... but 12 hours straight uptime is pretty good compared to the immediate X startup crash. Regardless of the .xsession-errors, there's no observable system degradation. I'll report back if I crash ... fingers crossed. Still looking forward to a fix for all those .xsession-errors.
