Xorg crashed with SIGABRT in raise()

[Daniel Winzen]

After restarting Ubuntu I got a message, that my GPU couldn't be identified and that I should configure them now, but pressing enter didn't work and also the mouse wasn't recognised, so I turned off and switched on again. After logging in, apport displayed me this error.
