Bug Description
I run on a Dimension 9200, with and nvidia card.
Everything seems to run smoothly then the the screen just goes black for a second and I'm on the login screen again.
It sometimes seems linked to something I'm doing (hitting F5 to refresh a page on firefox, hiting Ctrl+S to save in gedit) but sometimes it just does it while I'm not doing anything.
It looks like the crashes come farther apart when I only use gnome-terminal and nothing else.
Let me know if I need to join more information from logs or stuff (I'm not sure what to put here, I probably shouldn't be running and alpha in the first place...)
That's the entry I found in syslog corresponding to the crashes I get

It happens once after 1st login. If I reboot the system, it happens again once. The 2nd, 3rd, 4th, Nth... logins without a reboot don't zap.
Description: Ubuntu jaunty (development branch)
Release: 9.04
Linux host 2.6.28-3-rt #8-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT RT Sun Mar 22 10:13:20 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
It was happening also with 2.6.28-2-rt. Each fatal error happened few minutes after each reboot. Side note: once I saw scroll lock led ON (and I didn't touch the key).
Following instructions at bug #346454, I'm attaching both X.Org logs.
