I'm having a similar error in Hardy (cannot open display :1)
Could you elaborate on this patch please?
1) My guess is that the line about seahorse in your .xsession-error is unrelated. Correct?
2) Where in /usr/share/xserver-xgl/Xgl-session should the code you added above be pasted? Could you provide the contents of the previous and following lines?
I tried adding the commands between:
"...
verbose "Starting Xgl with options: " $XGL_ACCEL_OPTS $XGL_OPTS "\n"
$XGL_WRAPPER $XGL_DISPLAY $XGL_ACCEL_OPTS $XGL_OPTS &
DISPLAY=$XGL_DISPLAY"
and
"#Don't use Shift+Backspace as terminate_server
xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = BackSpace"
else
..."

But the patch did not seem to help. On logging in, the system just paused. Admittedly, I did not get the error in .xsession-errors, but Gnome did not load and the PC just waited. I had to disable Xgl (reinstating the file 'disable' in ~/.config/xserver-xgl) to login as usual.

If possible, please attach a copy of your Xgl-session that works.

My config:
Hardy
Compaq nc6230
ATI Mobility radeon

Thanks!
