I wonder why i didn't request this, but i want people to try and install
nvidia drivers first. If you can't stand non-open source software, just
install it and dispose it, for the sake of open source software

This problem should be due to a number of factors, since the error logs

@Hugo Zyzz Definitely not a RAM problem. RAM is constantly used by
browsers for the cache, and for many other programs. If that is the case
my gnome shell will crash every second. (wish i could experience that :)

So it should be confirmed that its a driver problem.

I think it is to do with the graphics drivers rendering too quickly.

No need to worry about it, Cinnamon is being actively developed for Mint
13, and its based on Gnome Shell, basically Gnome-shell + MGSE +
Customizability.
Here's a thread to start all of you on your journey to this awesome
desktop environment:
@Valdimir No need to worry, Cinnamon 1.2 is considered stable enough for
everyday usage. As for Mint 12 bug fixing, I'm not so sure about that.

Since its not the default window manager, it can't cause any issues.
Neither can incompatibility between gtk 2 apps and gnome-shell be the

@Shringer Are you using any gtk apps at that time?
@Karol I don't use Google Chrome but Firefox. Both are non-gtk apps. I usually
have gnome-tweak-tool on when the system crashes (its not only due to that).
Could it be incompatibility between gtk 2 apps and gnome-shell 3.2?
