plymouthd crashed with SIGSEGV in ply_event_loop_process_pending_events()

[ajacx]

Binary package hint: plymouth

Lucid Lynx - 2.6.32-19-generic - i686 - Intel Pentium 4
On booting I see the error: Could not read bytes: Pipe broken... but still loads to gdm and able to login. Then while using Chrome or another program which requires mem/cpu I get the crash, monitor first flashes and the message "Could not read bytes: Pipe broken" which might be a remnant can be seen again, monitor switches off, keyboard inactive but cpu running. Happened a few times now, 3 times in the middle of using Chrome.
