Jacob, are you *absolutely* sure the hardware is solid?  Does anything
else ever crash?  Does the same setup work on another machine (I
appreciate this is not always easy to test)?

Also, which Linux?  Not all kernels or distros are created equal.  Linux
is now where Windows was about a decade ago*, with the equivalent of DLL
hell but with the added bonus of some buggy kernels as well as all the
usual issues of buggy drivers and libraries.  It used to be a small,
cute system back when I started with it in 1995; now there can be some
unpleasant stability issues that can only show up with some combinations
of kernel, modules and applications.

* Some would argue it still is, although IMHO that's more an issue with
application developers than Microsoft now.
