Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the developers failed (it does not generate an useful symbolic stack trace). This might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system at the time of the report. Please upgrade your system to the latest package versions. If you still encounter the crash, please file a new report.

Thank you for your understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience!

It is relativly easy to reproduce for me.

Right after system start and login in unity the first think I do is opening unity dash start side and type in "thunderbird". Mostly I only use the first 2 or 3 letters and let the search function do the rest.

On that very first search compiz crashed with this here. I would say in 50% of all cases(as suggessing).

Good hunting.

Have hit this on a other Quantal system.

It is also the very first search performed with unity dash. This time it crashed with "vi"(for virtualbox).

That version has reached EOL since a while, so it will not receive update. If that issue still exist, report again using ubuntu-bug.
