Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please try to obtain a backtrace following the instructions at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash and upload the backtrace (as an attachment) to the bug report. You will need to run gnome-settings-daemon with "--no-daemon --sync" in GDB. This will greatly help us in tracking down your problem.

Bug 435432 has a backtrace with --sync which confirms it is XGetWindowAttributes which generates this error.

Reassigning to libxklavier. The information shows that the protocol request code generating the BadDrawable error is GetGeometry, and that happens because the window has already disappeared from the server. libxklavier should handle this in the same way that it already handles BadWindow errors.

This bug was fixed in the package libxklavier - 4.0-0ubuntu3

---------------
libxklavier (4.0-0ubuntu3) karmic; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/91_handle_baddrawable_errors.patch:
    - XGetWindowAttributes can generate a BadDrawable error if the
      window no longer exists. This case should be handled in the
      same way as BadWindow, and not crash gnome-settings-daemon
      (LP: #404924).
