Bug#583514: more information
I straced the Xorg process and found lines and lines of this:
octl(9, 0xc0086464, 0x7fff9e995170) = -1 EBUSY (Device or resource busy)
elmo:/opt/jffnms# ls -l /proc/24678/fd/9
lr-x------ 1 root root 64 May 28 09:20 /proc/24678/fd/9 -> /dev/dri/card0
elmo:/opt/jffnms# killall -KILL Xorg
elmo:/opt/jffnms# fuser /dev/dri/card0
/dev/dri/card0: 24745m
elmo:/opt/jffnms# ps 24745
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
24745 tty8 Ss+ 0:19 /usr/bin/X :0 -audit 0 -auth /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth -n
Isn't /usr/bin/X Xorg? why doesnt it die?
Killing that process and restarting gdm seems to work ok.
