Xorg crashing after GDM login

[Helmut Zimmer]

It seems that the crashing related to my i915 chipset and especially
915resolution. I played around with 915resolution a bit and now it isn't
crashing anymore.
The crashing only happened with GDM and for example with 'startx' X started
normally.
Anyway, It's sorted now.
