Not sure why but I've been getting this error randomly on Karmic since Alpha 2. As compiz comes up automatically and appears to crash randomly I have no idea how to get the required back trace. Hopefully the Apport report that should be in this bug report can help. Other wise I'll need some one to assist me in getting you the needed information.
