I've had some miscellaneous inconsistent crashes when closing windows in Ubuntu 6.0.6. When the application freeze happens I will get a pop up asking if I wish to force a quit. Responding yes properly terminates the application and all is back to normal. Its not to frequent and I've yet to loose any data with it. I'm running an AMD64 version.

I fixed it by moving from the beta to the full version. And also from Kbuntu to Ubuntu.
