** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
- X crashes randomly a few minutes after starting with the following error
- messages:
+ When the KDE panel auto-hide feature is enabled and aMSN Messenger is
+ started, if I move the pointer to the bottom of the screen several times
+ (where the hidden panel is supposed to be), X will crash. Usually, X
+ will not crash the first time I move the pointer to the bottom of the
+ screen (instead, it will show the panel as it's supposed to do) and it
+ does not take an exact number of pointer moves : it seems to take from 2
+ to 10 pointer moves to show the panel before X will crash. I didn't
+ count the exact number before each crash but I realized it changes from
+ one time to another.
+ 
+ If I enable KDE panel auto-hide but I don't start aMSN, X won't crash
+ (no matter how many times I move the pointer to the bottom of the screen
+ to show the panel). If I disable auto-hide (set the panel to "Always
+ visible") and I start aMSN, X won't crash.
+ 
+ I have never experienced this bug when I use GNOME (I have both GNOME
+ and KDE installed on my Ubuntu 10.04)
+ 
+ After a crash, I see the dialog when I have an option to run Ubuntu in
+ low graphics mode. I'm still able to use ttys (Ctrl+Alt+F[1-7]). If I
+ don't choose "run Ubuntu in low graphics mode" and I try to log in as
+ root in text mode and then run startx, X won't start. If I choose to run
+ Ubuntu in low-graphics mode, I can open a KDE or a GNOME session again
+ and I still have a 1280x800 resolution (the same as in the 'normal'
+ mode.
