Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Ubuntu 11.04
X appears to be randomly crashing and dumping me back to the login screen.  Running programs are killed.  Leaves video artifacts (dark pixels) on the screen post-crash which go away with a reboot.  Firefox 4.0.1, after X crashes and I log back in (without rebooting), cursor is displaced in Firefox and I have to position it one line above what I intend to click on.

The X crash seems the same as bug 780358.
