OK.  That rules that out then...

The backtrace is pretty consistent with the following few lines:

Program received signal SIGTERM, Terminated.
0x00007f146bab8110 in __close_nocancel () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
(gdb) backtrace r full
#0  0x00007f146bab8110 in __close_nocancel () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
No symbol table info available.
#1  0x00007f1466f61516 in ?? () from 
/usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//evdev_drv.so
No symbol table info available.
#2  0x0000000000447723 in DisableDevice (dev=0x18a33a0) at 
../../dix/devices.c:407

Are those lines pointing to a device or to the card possibly?

I'm running the same version of Ubuntu on three different machines, and 
I'm only experiencing the Xorg restarts on one system.  I'm at a loss...
