[i855] xorg crashes randomly

[Jovaro]

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Xorg seems to crash randomly, after a crash it is still possible to ssh to the machine, but not possible to restart X. A reboot is required to regain functionality.

Xorg.0.log shows an error about module i810 claiming that this module doesn't exist.
