Bug Description
Binary package hint: gdm
After today's update of gdm from 2.28.1-0ubuntu2 to 2.28.1-0ubuntu2.1, my X11 sever crashed 2 times in a row randomly, after about 15 minutes of usage. After the crash, gdm restarted with the login windows, as if I had gently logout.
There were no messages in /var/log/messages, but one in /var/log/gdm.

the crash is an xorg server one not a gdm bug...
