Well, I can tell you what I was doing exactly _after_ the crash occured. :-D
I typically have 5-6 workspaces with (essentially) the tails of different logfiles. I think I was rapidly switching through them using ctrl-keys (bbkeys = UpWorkspace, DownWorkspace, LeftWorkspace, RightWorkspace: I keep my bbpager as 2 columns and visualize it as such). I think "rapidly" might be a key. I often go over one workspace and down one workspace very quickly.. I can't say whether or not I was doing that at the time. One of the workspaces (that potentially I was leaving or passing through) had the "xslite" window open from a different machine, with the display on this one. I can't say for sure that I've always seen this crash when xslite was open, but it's happened more than once. I can tell you more stuff about the status of the wm: I probably also had GAIM and Opera open.. Let's see.. I have a jpg on my root window using xv in the style (I've since switched it back to bsetbg, to see if it happens again). Also "roottail" running on the root window.
