I've not heard of ChromiVNC being unstable recently - in fact I find
it pretty hard to crash on my own systems (MacOS 8.1 through 9.1).
First, make sure you installed the latest vncPatches, replacing the
AT&T version.
Is there something you can identify that usually causes instability?
Also, try disabling Timbuktu using the Extensions Manager and see if
the problem goes away - if it does, talk to Timbuktu.
The AT&T server *is* unstable. No bones about it.
