Bug#546455: xserver always crashes shortly after boot



Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.4+4

About 5-15 minutes after logging in, X server crashes (and thus is
restarted and I am thrown back to login screen again). This happens
every time after boot and only once. Subsequently, X server crashes no
more. I discovered, that first time after boot X server is started on
vt2 and there are some weird characters appearing on that terminal as
the server runs. Once restarted due to crash or manually
(ctrl-alt-backspace), X server is started on vt7 and ordinary getty is
started on vt2. Could that be related to cause of the crash?

In syslog I found only this:
Sep 13 12:17:19 emp-nv acpid: client 3235[0:0] has disconnected
Sep 13 12:17:19 emp-nv acpid: client 3235[0:0] has disconnected
Sep 13 12:17:19 emp-nv wdm: Server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly: 768

I am using wdm 1.28-3.1 and nvidia-kernel-2.6.30-1-amd64 185.18.14-2
Rest of the system is debian unstable, amd64 architecture
