This doesn't necessarily look like a gdm bug to me: it's a crash in the
Xorg server started by gdm, possibly to do with libdrm-intel1 or the
i915 driver in the kernel (or maybe X, or the X Intel driver).

Please send the information that would have been gathered if you'd
reported this as an X bug, which you can get with this command:

    reportbug --template xserver-xorg

Do you get this error with gdm3 3.4 from unstable, or only with gdm3 3.6
from experimental?

X maintainers: any ideas?
