Bug Description

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-evdev

After today's update, X11 is crashing and locking up the machine. The machine boots normally, gdm is being started, but once I try to use the bluetooth connected mouse, the screen starts to flicker, and then the machine locks up.

magic-sysreq-key doesn't work, switching to the console doesn't work.

The machine DOES NOT use compiz:

$ ps auxwww|grep compiz
hildeb 2549 0.0 0.0 10372 924 pts/0 S+ 13:11 0:00 grep compiz

So I think the packages causing the error boil down to the xorg and x11 packages:

2011-01-29 09:13:59 status installed xserver-xorg-video-fbdev 1:0.4.2-3ubuntu1

I don't use fb (in X) or the "chips" driver, and the dev packages don't matter, thus:

The logfile (attached) documents a crash immediately after the mouse is being recognized:

Switching back to xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.3.2-6ubuntu3b1 makes the problem go away.
