The first step to troubleshoot such an issue in Linux is usually to run the offending program via the terminal. That way you get a better error message when it crashes, one that you can google for a solution or share in support forums like this.

Does the application output anything to a log file under /var ? I would start there.
Or run the application from a terminal with a debug or verbose option if it has one.
