Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
Ubuntu 11.04 X appears to be randomly crashing and dumping me back to the login screen. Running programs are killed. Leaves video artifacts (dark pixels) on the screen post-crash which go away with a reboot. Firefox 4.0.1, after X crashes and I log back in (without rebooting), cursor is displaced in Firefox and I have to position it one line above what I intend to click on. The X crash seems the same as bug 780358.
