I also face many Emacs crashes but no X crashes. I managed to get a core
dump and will investigate further. You might want to do the same so we
can compare:

$ ulimit -c unlimited
$ sudu su
# echo -n 1 > /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable 
# echo -n 1 > /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable
# exit
$ emacs

When emacs crashes, you should get a core dump in current directory.

Best,
