It sounds like it changes/fails when the video driver is loaded. Do you use X 
video drivers from your card/chip vendor? 
I use nvidia drivers which compile modules according to your kernel. Usually 
if I update the kernel, it either breaks X or causes other problems. I can 
tell when X isn't going to start because the graphical boot fails and 
displays as a regular text boot screen. Reinstalling the driver fixes things.

The problems sound related in timing of when it fais, although if you've 
backed out of all the xorg & kernel updates, it shouldn't be a problem.
