Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate an useful symbolic stack trace). This
might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system
at the time of the report:

tzdata: installed version 2011g-0ubuntu0.11.04, latest version: 2011g-0ubuntu0.10.10
perl-base: installed version 5.10.1-17ubuntu4.1, latest version: 5.10.1-17ubuntu4

Please upgrade your system to the latest package versions. If you still
encounter the crash, please file a new report.

Thank you for your understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience!

Closing for Compiz because this is a 3-year-old crash in a no-longer supportedversion of the binary blob AMD driver with no additional information attached. There's no way we're going to get any more useful information at this point.
