I have now found a way to trigger this from the amd64 Ubuntu Gutsy liveCD: preview the Endgame screensaver in full screen, and wait until a rook(castle) moves (this may take a few minutes, as not all the games it shows include any). The crash occurs seconds later with the same symptoms. This works in both 1280x800 (default) and 1024x768, using the internal display.

There are also graphical artifacts (weird reflections, pieces disappearing behind others they should be in front of), but these could be a separate problem as in i386 Xubuntu Gutsy they occur but the crash doesn't (and the graphics are a lot slower).

Does this work for the rest of you? (It also works on my installed system, the reason for using the liveCD is to have a predictable software environment.) Does it work in Hardy?
