I'm seeing the same horrendous problems as Vikrand; I updated my intrepid ~30 mins ago and sudddenly X stopped working - I get the greeter application crashing message, and I can't log in.
As suggested by Vikras I can sneak myself in by setting AutomaticLogin in gdm.conf. However, this uses the failsafe X server so is dead slow, and additionally gnome-panel will not start, so my desktop is quite unusable.
I will try to upload my xorg.log of the failing session, but last I tried firefox crashes when my desktop is in this state.
Some perhaps-helpful information:
* BACKTRACE FROM XORG.0.LOG FILE:
(II) intel(0): Setting screen physical size to 246 x 184
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
[Switching to Thread 0x7f1b3675d780 (LWP 23939)]
0x000000000045e96e in panel_multiscreen_width ()
* MESSAGE FROM FIREFOX APPEARING ON MY CONSOLE: (firefox:23288): Gdk-CRITICAL **: get_monitor: assertion `monitor_num < screen_x11->n_monitors' failed
.. all in all I suspect this might be xrandr-related?
Hope this can be fixed asap or anyone can find a proper workaround, perhaps the above info helps. PS: I also tried setting "INTEL_BATCH=0" in my environment, and I also commented out the modules in xorg.conf - to no avail.
Is there a repo called intrepid-proposed, or should I just wait for the fixes to appear in intrepid-updates?
