I'm trying switching from Lucid's 2.6.32-24 Generic to its Lucid's 2.6.32-24 generic PAE kernel even though I only have 4Gb to see if it helps. Perhaps the NX bit preventing execution in data areas might prevent a crash?
Crash - Oolite 1.74.2

2 more crashes last night, one particularly annoying as I'd just been offered a 6 jump contract paying 70000 credits and hadn't had a chance to save

I was wondering if the reason could be the sound configuration you have applied as described in this post.
Do you by any chance have the possibility to play on a Lucid with its default sound setup?

I'm playing with standard stereo sound not A52. So my sound setup is close to the default.
I noticed crashes happening more often with newer Lucid kernels that came from the Update Manager, so at the moment, my suspect is them. Interestingly, I tried downgrading to an older kernel from the Lucid repository and Oolite crashed on startup.
