This is a screenshot of the crash output after the following procedure:
1) boot in recovery mode
Network is up, can access the network and get DHCP lease
2) start X
3) stop X (ctrl-alt-backspace)
Network now is no longer accessible to pings.
4) Try dhclient (or ifup/ifdown)
System crashes.
Further investigation shows that the drm and via modules are loaded by X and not unloaded afterwards. However, manually unloading these modules after stopping X is not enough to prevent the crash.
