Funny that you should mention that. I initially did not have these lines when I first encountered the problem. I then added them after discovering through Google that they had some bearing on translucency capabilities of Xorg (most of the references therein were to Nvidia graphic cards, mine is an Intel). No difference. And as expected, your advice to remove them has not made any difference either.
Another symptom - ctrl+alt+backspace does not seem to kill the x server, and
To cover all bases, my xorg.conf follows. Could it be one of the loaded modules that are causing this problem with the upgraded version of xorg ?

I dare not include the entire Xorg.0.log file as it is humoungous. However, upon perusal, I find some intriguing points :
1 :
X Window System Version 6.9.0 (Debian 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 20060114230205 David X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.9 Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.15-1-686 i686 ELF Current Operating System: Linux nanak 2.6.12-1-386 #1 Tue Sep 27 12:41:08 JST 2005 i686 to make sure that you have the latest version.

This version of X was built against a newer version of the kernel than I am running.

I include this because a lot of the really strange errors later make references to rings and such.

Thanks for the answer. I found out that the PermitRootLogin line was commented out and that UsePAM was enabled. I attach a copy of the file...

Now, in all my years of using X, I have never seen such errors. Could it all just be due to the DRI module not loading properly or something like that ?
