Bug Description

ubiquity was started on this system from command line:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ ubiquity -d --pdb
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

The installer was crashed when the installation begins (after the username / password setting page)
The pdb option does not work, the program just crashed before entering pdb.

This is the syslog till it crashes:

This is the log from /var/log/installer/debug

It crashes with:

(ubiquity:3928): Gdk-ERROR **: 04:55:24.804: The program 'ubiquity' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'.
  (Details: serial 22852 error_code 10 request_code 130 (MIT-SHM) minor_code 1)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment
   variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
