Lenovo T60 laptop, with wireless, etc enabled.
I've installed the debug packages so hopefully I'll get a better stack

Also, do you current use the compiz window manager? i.e. what is your

sudo apt-get -y install libc6-dbg xserver-xorg-core-dbg libgl1-mesa-dri-dbg
libgl1-mesa-glx-dbg xserver-xorg-vid
Aha, have found a backtrace in gdm/:0.log.1:
