I'm sorry to say that it crashes in the graphics driver. It seems like changing the decoration also restarts Compositing. There is unfortunately nothing we can do about it as drivers are out of our bounds.

There is unfortunately nothing we can > do about it as drivers are out of our bounds. So if i change from the open source driver to the ATI driver the problem will be solved? I will send the bug upstream to freedesktop.org.
[Comment from a bug triager] If anyone needs more information about this bug, there is a similar report at bug 241263, which was already reported upstream (at XOrg's/FreeDesktop bugtracker) Regards
