Does the whole system crash in this situation? What says the syslog file? Can you still boot in a sane state when dri is disabled?

Well, i cant get back to a virtual terminal, so i cant exactly tell if the system has crashed or not.

Even with dri disabled, i still get X dead.

Going back to try to reproduce, i cant seem to get *any* setting using the -10-generic kernel to get a working X, in normal mode.

In single user (aka. recovery) mode, i can /etc/init.d/kdm start, or run startx without a problem, and get a GUI.
