Sorry, it wasn't that causing the crash, anyway when I add this dektop file xfdesktop crashes:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Timidity++
Comment=A MIDI software synthesizer
Exec=timidity -ig
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Multimedia;
Icon=timidity.xpm

Ehm, now the crash doesn't occur anymore. Ok, I close the bug.
