Bug#286213: /usr/X11R6/bin/X: X freezes after log in.
Package: xserver-common
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10
Severity: important
File: /usr/X11R6/bin/X
Hi there.
This bug has been with me since a few weeks to 1 or 2 months. I don't
know for sure, because it showed up very rarely. With the new package,
that is now "a few seconds after logging in."
Symptoms: The X window system freezes. Often, I can move the mouse
pointer, but I can't affect anything. The programs don't update their
display. Keyboard input is ignored, even Ctrl-Alt-Backspace.
Killing X via ssh works in that it brings wdm back up. I never had
problems with wdm, only after I logged in. I also use the ratpoison
window manager with emacs in screen in an aterm.
Greetings,
