Bug Description
xorg on my Thinkpad X24 has been completely broken with the gutsy upgrade. I cannot even switch to a virtual terminal with Alt+Ctrl+F1 and back to X anymore.
Entering the console is fine and I can restart X or more precisely gdm from there to get back into X, but if I just use Alt+Ctrl+F7 the machine locks up completely and cannot even be ping'd anymore. I have to shut it down hard by pressing the power key for about 5 seconds. As the machine crashes, there is no way that I know of on how to collect relevant information or such things from logs.
I had wondered if possibly my xorg.conf was faulty. But starting X without xorg.conf produces the same behaviour.

X24 seems to have a Radeon inside..
Please attach your /var/log/ Xorg.0. log.old (the one which possibly has a backtrace). Also, try out Hardy alpha3 livecd.
