Public bug reported:

kosh@isis:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:	Ubuntu lucid (development branch)
Release:	10.04
kosh@isis:~$ dpkg -l xserver-xorg-core | egrep -e ^i
ii  xserver-xorg-core                          2:1.7.5-1ubuntu1                                Xorg X server - core server

Sometimes the X server crashes when I press the enter key. It happens
seldomly, so I can still work, but sometimes X will just die right when
I press enter. This has happened in oocalc, mplayer and gnome-terminal,
and the application does not receive the key press event (or has no time
to act on it).

I have attached my X server log which shows a backtrace:

Backtrace:

Caught signal 3 (Quit). Server aborting

I first noticed this problem on February 21st, so after this upgrade:

[UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-core 2:1.7.3.902-1ubuntu12 -> 2:1.7.5-1ubuntu1
