[ale] annoying, unknown X crash - only when laptop lid is closed.

I have a suddenly-appeared problem with my Kubuntu laptop. Everything was 
working fine for the past few weeks, and then one day upon opening my laptop 
I found that X had crashed. Since then, it has crashed every single time I 
leave the laptop closed for a while (as opposed to just turning off the 
screen). Now, this ONLY happens when my laptop is shut for an extended period 
of time, such as half an hour or more. I wasn't getting any errors so I tried 
logging in from console and running startx with the std error and output 
directed to a file, which I've pasted in below.

Has anyone had a similar problem and have any ideas where I can look? I can't 
seem to track down why this is happening only when the lid is shut, and it's 
really annoying having all my applications crash. 

Thanks in advance for any insight and tips.
