Hi,

Now that you point this out, I'm actually experiencing all of the 
mentioned, apart from the ethernet stuff.
mtrr
The GNOME3 stuff is not that bad though, but it looks like the color 
depth is set to 16bit instead of 24 or something.

GNOME3 has these random crashes on my machine too, i've mostly 
experienced it on webpages where flash is embedded... I'm actually 
pretty confident that this is the only place i've seen this happen.

Same stuff on my messages.log too...
