It crashes also for me since today.
Well, I upgraded to kernel 2.6.10-11 but can't use it yet because of my wifi so I boot back into 2.6.10-10-generic.

As the crash seems to have *something* to do with ~/.cache/xfce4/desktop/menu-cache--home-username-.config-xfce4-desktop-menu.xml.rc, i'll attach mine (as it was after the latest crash) just in case it's useful.

Do you still have this issue with an up-to-date Xubuntu Feisty ? Is this a random crash, startup crash ?
