I decided to move to the nouveau open driver.
Remove nvidia driver:

sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia*

and install the open one:

sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nouveau libdrm-nouveau1a nouveau-firmware

It works very well (Ubuntu 12.04 Nvidia GeForce Go 8400M GS).
No Xorg crash so far and no shutdown issues.
