I just got affected by this bug. I had Firefox, Rythmbox and LibreOffice Writer open. Firefox was "idle" (I was not using it directly but there is my gmail, twitter, etc. web apps). Rythmbox was "idle" (a song was playing, but I was not interacting with it). However, I was using heavily Writer. I have just finished the document, saved it and exported it as PDF using the toolbar shortcut. It started processing and then suddenly I got a blank screen and I was back after a couple of seconds to my X login screen. I've check the log, so far I have found this:

I have customised it a bit: LibreOffice instead of OpenOffice, Firefox 4 installed manually (in my HOME folder) and I use i915.powersave=0 because else I'm affected by bug #538648 I have a Lenovo T500 ThinkPad laptop with a Core 2 Duo P8400 and a GM45 video card (Intel GMA X4500HD).
