It happens on Linux too. Simply, the security fix for Xorg and Xenocara was wrong: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/183969 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=461465 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=354593 You could back out 006 or wait for fix for security fix.
