[Bug 412113] Re: gdm[17077]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler : Fatal X error

 

I am also having this problem (on karmic) . Xorg log says:

Backtrace:

on the syslog I find:

my video card:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV44 [Quadro NVS 285] (rev a1)
ii  nvidia-glx-185                             185.18.36-0ubuntu9                                         NVIDIA binary Xorg driver

When this happens, X crashes and then I am presented the login screen
again...
