Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I logged in with GDM, and pressed ctrl-alt-F1 to access a text console
(which was successful). When I tried to switch VT back to the X session
I saw the screen flicker and after a few seconds the GDM login screen
appeared. The X session was lost.

What I expected: to be able to switch back from the text console to the
X session.

What happened instead: the X session was finished and I had to log in
again.

The last few lines from Xorg.0.log were:

(II) AIGLX: Suspending AIGLX clients for VT switch
(II) Open ACPI successful (/var/run/acpid.socket)
(II) AIGLX: Resuming AIGLX clients after VT switch
(II) intel(0): No memory allocations
Fatal server error:
Failed to submit batchbuffer: Bad file descriptor
