Incidentally, I have been looking hard at my Xorg logs and comparing them
with those on a backup drive which has not been used for a few weeks. To
be honest, I don't usually pay attention to that log, because X "just
works", but I can't see any trace in the old log of the way that, at
present, whenever I switch to the console I have :

(WW) Open ACPI failed (/var/run/acpid.socket) (No such file or directory)
(II) No APM support in BIOS or kernel
(II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1440x900+0+0"
(II) PS/2 Mouse: ps2EnableDataReporting: succeeded

On those occasions when the switch causes X to crash, that is the last
entry in the log before the backtrace.

Does ACPI or APM usually work? How about disabling them?
