What version of xorg-server were you running at the time of the crash? This issue was resolved in 2:1.6.3-1ubuntu5 with this change:
xorg-server (2:1.6.3-1ubuntu5) karmic; urgency=low * Add 185_dix_badwindow.patch: dixLookupWindow may return BadMatch if the window in question isn't actually a window. In this case, GetProperty needs to return BadWindow - not BadMatch. Fixes unexpected crash in some GNOME applications not expecting to get BadMatch returned from this function call.
