Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.

I just re installed it and I've been using it for 4 hours and it hasn't
shut off or done anything weird plus I haven't gotten a bug report at all
yet so I think I fixed it
