[Bug 635811] Re: Xorg assert failure: X: /usr/include/xorg/privates.h:122: dixGetPrivateAddr: Assertion `key->initialized' failed.

Daniel, please take a look at /etc/X11/xorg.conf (if you have that file).
I've had the same error message after I upgraded from Kubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 (with updates) yesterday.
After many hours trying bring my system to live I've found that in my case it was:
Load "v4l"
option in "Module" section of this file.

I haven't gave up as I've had remastered (with xorg-edgers/radeon ppa)
pendrive with Kubuntu 10.10 and it was working fine, so I've tried to
use default livecd kernel and it's initrd, then xserver-xorg-video-ati
and *-radeon from xorg-edgers/radeon ppa, then r300g dri driver from
that ppa and later using default kdmrc and deleting xorg.conf - this
helped to start Xorg properly so I was digging in xorg.conf options
(I've got many of them in my 2-card multiseat environment) and the
problem was with "v4l" module.
