Pretty much X dies, tries to get the GPU driver to go back to text
mode, this re-enters somewhere
holding the drm lock and the GPU dies. Pretty much sums up the whole
problem with graphics card
drivers on Linux, I can't say how we can fix that apart from if you
could gdb the X server and we
can fix the actual crash so we can avoid the issue.

The real fix for this sort of issues is called kernel modesetting.
