I also experience this on Ubuntu 9.10 when recording with gtk-recordMyDesktop.
I have tested with visual effects (compiz) enabled and disabled, which makes no difference.
With the default settings for gtk-recordMyDesktop, the xorg crash can be reliably reproduced on my machine when closing the OpenShot About dialog.
If I disable "Outline Capture Area On Screen" in gtk-recordMyDesktop, then this stops OpenShot from crashing when closing the About dialog, but it still crashes when I maximize OpenShot.

Bug description:
Ubuntu 9.04 
OpenShot 0.9.54

I do screen captures at 1680x1050. Anyhow, after I've turned on my recording.. when I start up openshot, it will either immediately, or some time after, crash everything and send me directly to the splash login screen. It's done this to me twice, 
I'm still going to talk about openshot to others because it is a good alternative, but I can't demo it because of this bug. You can see where I put my videos here

I'm on video 441, this would be 442. I have no ten minute limit on my videos, so when I demo a program I don't actually waste time editing the video, but this program would make editing easier. When I edit video I tend to use blender's video sequence editor.
