I do not have a box in Testing, so I have not tested 3.2.0-9 in it. Tagging
the problem as 'sid' was probably an error on my part. [Thanks for that
pointer.]

Not an easy call. The behavior I see seems like it's grave, so I think the
severity was right, just maybe not the particular package the bug is under.
I just don't know how to track down which package it should be under instead
in this case.

I normally use the proprietary 'nvidia' driver, however I've tested with both
the 'nv' driver and the 'vesa' driver and get the exact same error when using
those drivers too. :-(

Understood.

As this seems X related I'm not sure removing OO.org extensions would help.
If you think it will, can you suggest which ones I should remove?

I don't use compiz nor the compositing built-in to KDE4. I'm attaching my
xorg.conf file -- it's short.
