I am using Linux-Mint 13 it's called Maya. My kernel is generic by default with no ppa's installed

I wish I had a college education.

        Most of them don't crash, especially without proprietary
          drivers and sticking with CLI ;-)

          

          Maya is Mint Linux.

    If you are having crashes with linux in general it might be a good
    idea to assume its a buggy driver or faulty hardware.

    My last comp started locking up whenever I pushed the cpu at all
    which I later determined to be a thermal failure in the MB.

    I yanked the hard drive and put it in another box and after some
    driver tweaking for the graphics was running rock solid again.
