During my second test i ran a for loop saving dmesg outputs while i
started gdm.

dmesg outputs 1-4 looks fine(as the one i just posted). This is before
Xorg started.

dmesg outputs 5+ looks like binary data. I have multiple stored, and
call always generate more, but here is one copy.

** Attachment added: "Garbled/binary dmesg from xorg crash"
   http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28749450/dmesg-5

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  With kms enabled + bootsplash:
  - Everything looks fine and dandy, untill X loads. When X loads the mouse cursor is very garbled(is only recognizable as such because it moves), and nothing else is showing on the screen.. ctrl+alt+f1 does nothing. Caps-lock, etc, aren't responding.
  
  With kms enabled, no bootsplash, VT only:
  Resolution is changed. It looks great, and is very fast, but parts of the very bottom of the screen (1-2px) is filled with garbage.
  
- This garbage is there even if the text on the screen hasn't reached the
- bottom yet. Is there after a "reset" command.
+ More information in comments.
+ 
  
  With kms disabled: 
  Everything is working fine.
  
  If i, during an kms disabled, run
  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
  sudo rmmod i915
  sudo modprobe i915 modeset=1
  
  i will get the garbled pixels in the bottom of the VT. And a
  
  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
  
  Will fail just as normal.
  
  For some reason i can't explain, the Xorg.0.log.old file contains stuff
  like this after the crash:
  
  --- start of file ---

   powerful language for representing information. The library
   contains an RDF/XML parser/serializer that conforms to the
   RDF/XML Syntax Specification and both in-memory and persistent
   Graph backend.
   .
   This package also provides a serialization format converter
   called rdfpipe in order to deal with the different formats
   RDFLib works with.
