Thomas in #34 makes a good point. The fix from #31 impairs the functionality of the touchpad. I have changed using the advice from #32, namely installing the previous version of xserver-xorg-input- synaptics in synaptic package manager and then locking the version there. It does seem that this indeed solves the crashes.
