apport information

** Description changed:

  On Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic.
  
  Sometimes, when I try to login, the login box disappears and the usplash
  (I think) starts as usual (with the scrolling bar). Within two or three
  seconds, the screen goes black, I get some errors, then the login screen
  again. I often have to make two or three attempts to finally get a
  successful login.
  
  Conditions: The default screen resolution is 1152 x 864; 75Hz. If I
  change the refresh rate to 60Hz then I am often unable to login. The
  screen flashes black (like it is supposed to when changing the
  resolution), and then a black error screen is seen. After this usplash
  continues, except not to log me in, but to go to gdm).
  
  This is a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala. I do not know
  whether I have a graphics card (I seriously doubt it, because I am
  unable to use Desktop Effects). I am willing to submit any other data
  that is required.
  
  Reproducible: Not always. Since I am able to login after a couple of
  attempts. Even when the screen resolutions (of my account to gdm) are
  not equal, I rarely am able to login in my first attempt.
  
  Other info:
  - I have not been able to note the error messages down as yet.
  - Yes, I am sure I typed in my password correctly. If I don't, I am not allowed to get to the point where usplash starts scrolling a bar on the screen.
  - This happens after around the bar completes one full scroll, sometimes two. FYI, for the whole login process, Ubuntu consistently takes 14 or 15 scrolls or scrolling cycles (whatever you call it).
  - I have never tried it with a different screen resolution (e.g 1024*768)
