If you're somehow having to reboot a linux box that often, that's not
luck, that's extreme flakiness.

That's true, but I've always put it down to the fact that it's my home
desktop which is powered down every night and re-awoken every evening
when I get in from work.
However it has been flakey: and the once-a-month issue with the grapics
card has been the least of my worries. Thunderbird regularly freezes or
crashes and has to be re-started (in fact this is the second time I've
written this because it just did it again). Sometimes the entire
desktop locks up such that the only way to get out of the lockup is to
turn off the power and reboot. Firefox crashes all the time. Updates
sometimes fail - sometime leaving the desktop frozen as mentioned
earlier. I had AppArmor going wild for no reason I could fathom and
refusing to allow Apache to do all the things it needed to do (like
access the file system). There are other, smaller, issues as well.
So the little bit of a problem with the graphics card is really no
problem at all.
