However, switching to using the vesa driver for Xorg *has* helped; so
far there have been no crashes.
I did this by blacklisting "i915" and creating an xorg.conf, as so:
aquarius@faith:~$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-intel-sil.conf
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
blacklist i915
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection
