Mike, thanks for including the Xorg.0.log, this shows a partial backtrace of the error. Would you mind please reproducing the crash and obtaining a full backtrace? See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing for directions on how to do this. Thanks ahead of time.

Worth pointing out I am using Miro from their repo, not from the Ubuntu one.

alan@hactar:~$ dpkg -l miro
ii miro 1.2.3-0pcf1 GTK+ based RSS video aggregator

Most likely a dupe of Bug 220019. Could you please check the driver mentioned there. It should fix your problem.
