Title:
  X.org crashes after xserver-xorg-video-radeon update to 1.7.5

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  For my entire life, being a windows and mac user I can't remember a
  single case when a minor video driver update brought a system to
  unusable state. For Ubuntu, it appears to be a trend.

  repro steps:
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get upgrade
  sudo reboot

  
  p.s. While my day job is a software engineer, it is not a "volunteer ubuntu tester in place of proper QA". I will gladly provide any additional information that would help you to fix the bug, but please realise that requsts like "go read our very important bug submission guidelines, maggot" will be ignored. I already spent tons of time figuring out exact package that led to very obscure xorg crash, and the solution "hold xserver-xorg-video-radeon package" just works for me.

  p.p.s I did press "send the core dump" button.
