Bug#464580: xserver-xorg-video-intel: X crashes with DRI disabled on 945G chipset

[Ferry Toth <ftoth@tiscali.nl>]

Hello Brice,

Sorry to wait that long to try your suggestion.

This is to let you know after I did:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

(thus restoring /etc/X11/xorg.conf to its default) I can actually open multiple sessions. So the problem can actually be reproduced in this way.

In KDE my screen is rotated depending on user preferences, so that still works fine.

Do you have any idea how I rotate the kdm greeter, without using Option "Rotate" "left" as I had? Because now I need to rotate my head during login :-)

Thanks,

Ferry
