I reported this bug to nVidia, and they find it's an Xorg error in Ubuntu's implementation. Their comment is: http://nvidia.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/nvidia.cfg/php/enduser/acct_login.php?p_next_page=myq_upd.php&p_iid=298195&p_created=1285728578 -------------------- Thanks for running those xinerama tests and for the additional information.
I set this up and can reproduce this fairly easily, but I'm pretty sure this isn't an NVIDIA bug. I can reproduce the problem with Ubuntu Maverick, but I can't reproduce it on a recent version of Arch Linux, which uses the same X server version. On Ubuntu, I can induce a crash by just running `kwrite` in a bare X server with Xinerama enabled. I always get the same backtrace from the crashing server: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Let me know if I can help further.
