Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

Every time i start ubuntu, after few time, all menus (ex. Application, Places, System) will crash and i don't be able to open it. All Keyboard fields has not the blinking cursor and keyboard doesn't work. After restarting Xorg all the system works correctly and the bug don't re-appear. See the video attached for example.
I saw the same bug in Debian squeeze some month ago. Now i don't have it installed in my pc and i don't know if they solved it.

Hey nakki,

Hi, have you had a chance to test if this bug is still present in natty?

If it does (and if you're the original reporter), please boot into natty
and run the command:

  apport-collect <bug-number>

which will update the bug with fresh logs and tag the bug as affecting
natty. (It is best to run this right after reproducing the problem.)
