Hello Brice,

with this mail I send you the requested X.err and X.out (as described
above). X.err really consists of a bunch of errors and also fatal errors.
Maybe this crash is related to the communication from Xorg with my KDE
4.2 (the current version from Debian experimental).

Greetings,
   Andreas
