Comment 2 for bug 181176

Just tried Hardy alpha2, with pretty much the same result. Xorg goes into infinite loop.

 I did a dpkg -i and installed the xserver-xorg-core with debugging symbols and captured another trace if you are interested. I have attached both the backtrace capture and my Xorg.0.log file, in a tar file.

One thing worth noting. To get the system to boot I had to use the alternate CD, and install a command line system first, then add the packages I needed for X.

This because booting from the Live CD resulted in a crash at
