Okay, below is the XFree log file. It is truncated at the point where
the oops occurs. I sent an e-mail to Andrew confirming that backing out
sysfs-class-10-vc.patch fixes the problem for me.

---end X log for kernel oops

The VT number it tries to use jumps around. Sometimes it is VT10, VT11,
etc. It should be using VT7 however.
