** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  How to reproduce:
  
  1. Boot the system
-    Notice that X starts on tty1 (compared to tty7 in earlier releases of Ubuntu)
+    Notice that X starts on tty1 (compared to tty7 in earlier releases of Ubuntu)
  2. Log in
  3. Open gedit
  4. Enter
  
-      910#uC

-    and press enter.  X will crash and/or restart, and the login screen will be presented again.

  I've successfully reproduced this at least 10 times.  The bug dosen't
  seem to be in effect after the first X restart.  I've also noticed
  random/garbage text on tty1 after X had restarted.  This text is clearly
  console input data, as the getty responds to it with a 'Password:'
  prompt.  Here's an example of the text (seen after 'login:' prompt):
  
-   164*888888888<6'(
+   164*888888888<6'(
  
  It's clear that at least one other character string can trigger the same
  bug (has the same effect).  The string above just happened to be part of
  one of my passwords - that is how I initially discovered this: X
- crashing everytime I tried logging in to particular service.
