I am running Debian unstable on a Lenovo Thinkpad X61. I dist-upgrade frequently. Since about two weeks I get thrown out of my X sessions a lot, and then I have to log in again, which of course is very annoying. No specific precipitator of the crashes has become evident, but it appears to happen mostly (but not exclusively) when watching video with either vlc, smplayer or ogle.
At about the same time as this started, I noticed that I no longer have access to other virtual terminals through Ctrl-Alt-F1 and similar. Trying to access them either causes X to crash or does nothing, randomly. Does anyone recognize these problems, and if so, is there a solution? Sorry for the vague descriptions instead of a proper bug report, but since I cannot find a way to reliably cause crashes, I do not know what package to file a bug against. It is most likely some part of the X conglomerate of course, but it appeared to me that the lack of virtual terminals could be related and I do not even know what package handles that.
