I have the same bug here on two different laptop at my office : one with Intrepid and one with Jaunty. The error message in the X server log file after the crash is exactly the same : "BOGUS LENGTH in write keyboard desc". On these two laptops, I had changed some default settings in System > Preferences > Keyboard > Layout > Layout options. Here is an example of the options I had set :
gconftool-2 -R /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd
layouts = [fr]
options = [caps caps:shiftlock,grp grp:alts_toggle,kpdl kpdl:comma]
model = latitude
