Yes, I know that problem and have tried everything in that direction (and in
others: turning on/off framebuffer, starting just "X", without windowmanager,...)

The problem always occured when the first window was opened (the Gnome splash
screen usually or - if I started a plain X server - the xterm).

But - as already mentioned - perhaps that has changed with version 4.0.2. I have
tried with 4.0.2pre only and didn't have the time (and nerve) since, as it
requires a file system check every time the system crashes.
