I just have opened notepad in Wine, and then pressed left Alt.
I repeat this crash several times, with different aplications runing under Wine.

I was moving a window from one virtual desktop to another with CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+Right Arrow when the crash occurred. I have also noticed this behaviour in 11.10 with a clean install, which I get two or three times a day randomly. In Ubuntu 11.10 though there is no crash, you can just see compiz reloading the desktop.
