Random log outs after dist-upgrade

[mdav90]

Since the dist-upgrade I've experienced a few random logouts. The last couple times were just 10-15 mins apart and I was only using one web browser window and vim. Needless to say all my work in vim was lost. Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks!

UPDATE: n00b alert: It looks like it may have been due to a firefox add-on  ::). Had to start firefox in safe mode to keep from getting an immediate log out.

After updating ABP and HTTPS-Everywhere it's running okay so far. If my luck lasts throughout the rest of the day, I'll mark this as solved.

UPDATE: It must not be an add-on. Disabled add-ons, and again running firefox and a terminal and I get a forced logout and lost everything :-\. Anyone have a clue? What supplemental info should I post?

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED !!!!

looks like your Intel card is crashing after you put a little pressure on it i.e overloading and/or it cries when it has too much work and decides enough is enough and says f***   this .. I didn't sign up for this shit they said it was going to be easier :) Im outta HERE ..

INTEL card walks out and slams the tty behind it

update the xorg drivers and re-test
