I experienced the same error when I right-clicked one of the document tabs:
ahj@anders-laptop:~/projects/prot$ gedit TcpSampling.cpp ahj@anders-laptop:~/projects/prot$ (gedit:22206): Gdk-WARNING **: The program 'gedit' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'. (Details: serial 7971714 error_code 3 request_code 141 minor_code 51) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the GDK_SYNCHRONIZE environment variable to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
