I'm seeing the same horrendous problems as Vikrand; I updated my
intrepid ~30 mins ago and sudddenly X stopped working - I get the
greeter application crashing message, and I can't log in.
As suggested by Vikras I can sneak myself in by setting AutomaticLogin
in gdm.conf. However, this uses the failsafe X server so is dead slow,
and additionally gnome-panel will not start, so my desktop is quite
unusable.
I will try to upload my xorg.log of the failing session, but last I
tried firefox crashes when my desktop is in this state.
Some perhaps-helpful information:
* BACKTRACE FROM XORG.0.LOG FILE:

* MESSAGE FROM FIREFOX APPEARING ON MY CONSOLE:
(firefox:23288): Gdk-CRITICAL **: get_monitor: assertion
`monitor_num < screen_x11->n_monitors' failed
.. all in all I suspect this might be xrandr-related?
Hope this can be fixed asap or anyone can find a proper workaround, perhaps the
above info helps. PS: I also tried setting "INTEL_BATCH=0" in my environment,
and I also commented out the modules in xorg.conf - to no avail.
Is there a repo called intrepid-proposed, or should I just wait for the
fixes to appear in intrepid-updates?
Hope this is helpful,
oystein
