Hello:

I have been looking at the logs and found this:

1.
'warnings' log

[code]
Oct 21 12:43:35 groucho gdm-binary[2719]:
WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0
Oct 21 12:43:36 groucho xinetd[2499]: Exiting...
[/code]

Looking around I found a post about it on the web ...
---
... in truth all it means is "X crashed for some reason". You'll see 
this message in gdm logs for any variety of different crashes ...
---
... without any other explanation.

See:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/152648

I also found a post that asked about a vga=XXX line in my kernel 
command line.

I did have vga=792, which I eliminated.
But the problem did not go away.

On the good side, the /var/log/gdm/:0.log file seems clean:
