I have rebooted my system and after that I cannot log-in to my system
using the graphical interface. After I hit my username and enter the
password the screen turns black for a brief and then the login screen
appears again.
I switched to a text terminal and checked the "/var/log/messages".
Here are the related lines:
Sep 18 08:20:47 TestField pam: gdm-password[2308]:

As you can see Xorg segfaults.

Has enybody encountered such an error?
What can be done in this case?

Regards,
Simion Onea.
