The last line is not useful in this case :-)
In addition to the full current X log, you can also look into the last
ones ("/var/log/Xorg.0.log.old" or "/var/log/Xorg.1.log"...).

Okay, the Intel driver should be well supported.

What makes you think that creating a new user will make you to loose the
control of your current setup? :-)
That will not happen (and if that happens it would be a very critical bug
IMO), when you add a new user you keep the old one "as is" (intact) so
there is nothing to worry. In fact, creating a new user is the best way
to avoid mix up things and allows you to debug problems that can arise
only with your current user's profile.

Then maybe is gnome-shell which makes X to crash :-?
