Hello Julien!
Thanks for the hint to try that version. No, it doesn't!
But also updating libgl1-mesa-dri from 6.5.1-0.4 to 6.5.1-0.5 apparently
seems to fix the problem!
So all of the following is probably only of academic interest and the bug
can be closed:
Before the xserver-xorg-video-savage update I did not have the issue
anymore for some unknown reason anyway. Instead of hanging on logout, the
X server stopped, possibly crashed and kdm was not restarted anymore. I
had to restart kdm manually then.
After just upgrading xserver-xorg-video-savage to 1:2.1.2-3 and before
upgrading libgl1-mesa-dri I had the old reported behavior instead:
Now again X.org hangs, after KDE logout, the screen stays blank and thats
about it. Since I have a second notebook at hand I am able to SSH into
the machine. X consumes all the CPU power:
17523 root 33 0 282m 19m 4064 R 99.7 2.6 3:41.31 Xorg
Attaching strace to X see what it does hangs too:
deepdance:share/doc/xserver-xorg-video-savage#1> strace -p 17523
Process 17523 attached - interrupt to quit
[... hang ...]
It cannot be stopped with Crtl-C. SSH login is still possible. strace
seems fine, altough its not stopable via Ctrl-C, maybe because it only
checks for Ctrl-C after printing an event? It does not print any function
calls. Only kill -9 gets rid of the hanging strace process.
"/etc/init.d/kdm stop" is not able to get rid of the X server. It still
consumes all available CPU time. kdm is not stopped either then.
"kill" on the X server process (17523 here) does not work. "kill -9"
works. Then I am able to start KDM again.
