Also when switching to virtual terminal, the screen will turn upside down sometimes with the previous image displayed of the display manager. The virtual terminal is unusable.

Forgot to include a screenshot for when Xorg crashed

Well, you don't need a xorg.conf, for starters. Having said that, QXL haven't got a release in a long time, hence the git build. I'm going to try to reproduce this issue and perhaps update QXL.
