Has anyone else had stability issues in Linux? I've tried multiple Linux distributions - Ubuntu, and Gentoo. The only OS that seems to be running stable has been Windows 7, ugh.
To give you some background, the hardware that I am running is exactly the same except I have a new processor -- 8150. I have the same issue with from an installed system as well as using various LiveCDs. There are two symptoms, the system will go into what I can only explain as a power saving mode while in use, the only way to recover is to power off the system from the power supply, or the system will crash to the console and freeze with the dump text error message "BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper."
The only thing that I can think of is that my power supply has started failing, Bulldozer is pulling entirely too much power, there is some bug with Bulldozer or my processor is malfunctioning, or the fact that I'm using an 890fx motherboard.
System:
Bulldozer 8150
MSI 890FX-GD70
8G 1600mhz G.Skill
750W

While researching this issue I came across this thread, maybe my problem is not isolated:
