Bug Description

In Ubuntu 11.04, when I login using "Ubuntu" or "Ubuntu classic" mode, I have an immediate crash. Here I have filled this report using apport-bug informaiton.

Note that when I login using "Ubuntu classic (without effect)", I don't have the crash and the desktop seems to work fine.

This bug report is the same as this one I already filled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/793114
But here you have the apport crash report.
I hope it will help to find out the problem.

The crash is in fact in X server, as you can see in the attached Xorg.0.log.old
