Firefox and Chromium crash constantly on a fresh install of Ubuntu 18 on my Thinkpad T420. Only excuse I can think of is that it's an old machine.

I want to switch but every time I kick the tires I'm baffled at how quickly it blows up.



It really sounds like a hardware problem. Linux excels on older hardware.


Do you have bad ram?
