login. Attachment is this text after an hour of running:

Thanks for the bug report.  We have reviewed the information you have provided
above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful
in our diagnosis of this issue.

Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf, if available),
/var/log/dmesg, and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report
as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment
link below.

Nicolas, please, file a separate bug with the same information attached.

We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this
information.

Thanks in advance.

I haven't seen it lately with latest rawhide versions. I'll file a bug if it
occurs again
