For me, this is still an issue. I am still running 12.04 and wait for this to be fixed until i upgrade. It is also kind of problematic to test this because i would have to sacrifice my only running machine which i regulary use to work. If i upgrade to the latest ubuntu and the crash is still there, i end up having an unusable machine. If the process here is stuck in a deadend, i am willing to upgrade anyway and provide the needed debug information. But only if it is the last resort to get this fixed. I hope you can understand that. Actually, now that i look at this bug, i see that a backtrace i have attached got lost somehow (at least i don't see it now). Where did that file go? When i am home in a few hours i can look if i find it again. But please dont just close this bug.

Although not reproducible at will, with distressing regularity some finger drags on the touchpad returns you to the Unity login screen because the X server crashes. It seems that it is a fast drag that does it, but attempts to make it happen at will so far have failed. Apparently it is evil and waits for an inopportune time nail your most important work.
