[Bug 147361] [gutsy] kdm crashes when randr is enabled

[Guillaume Martres]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase

Since some days, kdm is crashing everytime I try to log in(when I press "Enter"). I don't know when this problem started, because I don't reboot often(hibernate rocks). I've tryed to downgrade some packages(kdm, xorg, xorg-server,xserver-xorg-video-ati) without success. The problem only occur when I use kdm and the ati driver, everything works if I use the vesa driver or if I use xinit (with startkde in my .xinitrc).
Finally, I tried to add:
Section "Extensions"
        Option          "RANDR"         "Disable"
EndSection
to my xorg.conf, and it worked, I can't figure out why, but I'm now able to login without any problem.
