Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

This machine ran Jaunty fine with Compiz 3d etc.

When I updated to Karmic, compiz stopped working.  It ran with software
rendering.  However, glxgears appeared to have hardware acceleration.

Today I updated with the latest karmic updates and tried again -- it was
now fully software rendering in all cases.  So, just to give it a shot,
I pulled out an old PCI rage card that was sitting unused in the
computer (this was originally used for dual head, but Xorg started
segfaulting when I enabled dual head sometime around Hardy or Intrepid).
Now, when I run glxgears in Xorg, the screen goes dark and Linux
crashes.

It appears to hard-lock in X11, though behavior varies.  Typically the
screen goes black immediately and goes into DPMS sleep.  One time the
screen went black, but I was able to ssh in and saw X11 using 100% of
CPU. When I killed X the machine crashed.  Another time, X was frozen
except the mouse would update once per second, and the machine crashed
on killing X.  All other attempts, Linux has crashed instantly as soon
as I run "glxgears."

Linux is completely crashed in these cases, and won't even respond to
SysRq.
