I've been experiencing something similar, not a panic but, whenever I 
switch to console (ctrl-f1?) and come back to X (ctrl-f9), my session 
goes away and a new XDM screen presents itself for a fresh login.

Might it have to do with my hardware?  I started using one of those 
"wide screen" displays (1440 x 900), about the same time my updates 
started showing "7.2-PRERELEASE" as version number, and it still happens 
with "7.2-STABLE".  All ports current (except OOO 3.0.0).

Still using the same Radeon 9100 "IGP" forced to PCI mode, if that might 
matter.
