I don't agree with that.
In my experience it is neither more nor less "stable"
than any other Linux distribution.

I actually tried running my Athlon-64 machine in text mode,
and it did not crash -
so presumably the problem lies in the X server, as I suspected,
and would presumably have occurred with any distribution
with this version of Xorg.
(I have a Radeon 9600 card, and others have reported problems with this.)
