Does this happen to anybody else? Should I report it as a bug?
I googled it and found several references of the problem, although old
(around April 2009).

Are you using an intel graphics chip? This was happening on my
laptop about 6 months ago, and I finally tracked it down to the
intel driver crashing on logout. I use kdm, so a workaround for me
was to add the line

TerminateServer=true

to the [X-:*-Core] section of the file /etc/kde4/kdm/kdmrc.

Thanks for the tip, that worked!

I have indeed an intel chip and I wonder which package has the bug, in
order to report it.
(EE) intel(0): Failed to initialize kernel memory manager
That must be the xserver-xorg-video-intel. First install the
xserver-xorg-video-intel-dbg, then reproduce. That will probably give
a more helpful backtrace for the people who have to fix this problem.

I installed xserver-xorg-video-intel-dbg but I don't know what to do
now. I reproduced it, and both at dmesg and /var/log/Xorg.log I get
exactly the same things that I posted earlier. With dbg, should I do
something different? Where does it write its trace?

Run ulimit -a and see if you have core files set to 0 or unlimited.

You want to run gdb against the core and run bt full for a full backtrace and include that along with the logs for your report.

$ gdb application core.Xorg

gdb> bt full

Send this & logs in the bug report.
