I found that a fresh install fixed the problem for me... And after a while the crashing returned.

Investigation has shown me that guidance-power-manager crashes when I have Xinerama enabled in xorg.conf. I figured this out because setting up Dual-headed mode is when the crashing started again after the clean installation. Diffing the two configs (pre-dualhead and dualheaded) and changing each part of the differences has shown Xinerama to be the problem. I do not understand it, but hopefully the developers will be able to identify why guidance-power-manager crashes with Xinerama...

Let me know if you would like the back-trace for this

Thanks,
Matt
