Initially it was robust enough, but recently, after upgrading some things (which I don't exactly recall now), gnome started crashing. It's really bad to loose some work and have to recover every couple of hours and sometimes even minutes. That's how long crashes are taking nowadays over here:-(

Can you please state which INDIVIDUAL app is crashing? Once you determine
which app is crashing, you can then usually figure out what the problem is.

No - not unless you tell us EXACTLY what you are doing. Does all of 'X' crash?
if this is so, then it is an X bug, and not a GNOME bug

Note: the latest stable gnome-libs version is 1.2.4
