This also occurs when booting up since the gui startup screen starts and stops x a few times. I have to boot in init 3. I am using a Dell Precision 360 with nVidia Quadro NVS AGP 8x video card and I do have the NVIDIA video driver installed(it works on other systems with the 2.6.x kernel)

I have experienced the X starting/stopping myself.  Think I have seen it 2-3 times now on various issues, the last was just
doing a reboot from the logout menu in gnome.

Mine is a ATI 9000 Pro w/KDS monitor.  Thinking this may be something non-hardware related though.
