This is actually a GTK bug, currently marked Critical in GNOME, but no solution yet AFAICT.

[Vadim Rutkovsky (roignac)]

Changing project to GTK+3.0, as similar crashes have been reproduced in evolution and rhythmbox

I also have the same problem - gedit crashes. I started to run it from terminal rather than using F2 and got the following:

Gtk:ERROR:/build/buildd/gtk+3.0-3.2.0/./gtk/gtkfilesystemmodel.c:745:gtk_file_system_model_sort: assertion failed: (r == n_visible_rows)
Aborted

I have ubuntu 11.10 with all the updates.

This bug was fixed in the package gtk+3.0 - 3.6.2-0ubuntu1

---------------
gtk+3.0 (3.6.2-0ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low

  * New upstream version:
    - refactor some fileselector code to avoid segfaults,
      thanks William Hua for tracking those issues (lp: #851843)
  * Drop patches included in the new version
  * debian/libgtk-3-0.symbols:
    - updated for the new version, dropping private symbols
