[Invalid] - Rock64 Focal /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg segmentation fault

Updated Armbian on Rock64 today, then lightdm stopped working. After peeling the layers it appears to come down to Xorg giving signal 11 "Segmentation fault"

Is there a way to fix this without downgrading?

Your issue report is not a valid bug report per the Armbian bug reporting instructions (https://www.armbian.com/bugs). With limited resources the Armbian project is only able to spend time on issues where all the requested information has been provided and for only the boards/images/software that are supported. Your report is invalid for one or more of the following reasons (non-exhaustive list):

it is for an unsupported board or image (CSC/EOS/WIP/edge)
it is for software that is not supported (such as userspace modules installed on top of the core operating system)
it has been logged in the wrong forum (for example requests for help that are not actual bug reports)
it lacks requested data (armbianmonitor output)
it could have been easily solved by a quick search and/or reading documentation

Please review what you have submitted and the bug logging instructions (https://www.armbian.com/bugs) and either add the required information or open a new topic in the correct forum (such as Common issues / peer to peer technical support or General chit chat)
