Your GPU is crashing and your graphics card is causing a kernel panic,
This is *possible*, but there's nothing in the logs that koder posted
that supports it. If the machine's kernel-panicked, then it'll probably
be completely unresponsive (no way to ssh in) though it might respond to
pings.
It's an MSI card, and I use an ATI 7970 myself with minimal problems,
but you really need to stick with the 13.12 driver series on linux for
most ATI cards right now.
If don't need your 3D stuff to run as fast as possible, don't bother
with the non-Open 3D graphics modules. Just install radeon or nouveau,
since those don't tend to crash horribly every 5 minutes.
If it's an Nvidia card, just reinstall the proprietary drivers
IME, the binary-only modules from nvidia caused many more problems than
the nouveau modules. Note that YMMV on this.

I almost loathe ubuntu these days, but sadly it's still more
wrecked than ubuntu for real usage, at least until you replace unity.
Is there _anyone_ who likes Unity?
