can you try installing the 0ad-dbg and gdb packages, and running 0ad under gdb with:
$ gdb /usr/games/pyrogenesis (gdb) r
then when it crashes:
(gdb) bt
and attach the output.

Also, are you using the Nvidia drivers? It currently seems there's a bug with them causing the game to crash. For me the game actually ran fine when run through gdb, and we had to work around it to get a back trace in the first place.

Very interesting, but when I run game through gdb - game work fine, bug not reproduced. If run without gdb - segmentation fault (when move cursor over game menu and if click Quit)

I'm using default Ubuntu Nvidia driver. My videocard - GeForce? GTS250
