Do you remember which tools (calligraphy, eraser, ...) you used and what steps triggered the crash?

> inkscape 0.47~pre1-0ubuntu2
Did it reoccur with the current stable version as well?

Hi Juan,

Did you find out which steps were needed to reproduce this crash? Does it still happen with the latest Ubuntu Inkscape package?

Thanks

It seems fixed in Lucid already.
