Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gimp

When I edit a large Image (mindmap with 3 transparent layers, A3,
300dpi) with Gimp using my tablet stylus it regularly but unpredictably
crashes, producing such output

"The program 'gimp' received an X Window System error.                                                                                                                                       
This probably reflects a bug in the program.                                                                                                                                                                    
The error was 'XI_BadDevice (invalid Device parameter)'.
  (Details: serial 601540 error_code 149 request_code 141 minor_code 13)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

(script-fu:19377): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: gimp_wire_read():
error"

Prior to that, everything looks perfectly normal.
I save every 10 moves now..
