How do I turn off the compositor? Do I need it?
Look in settings - this depends on whether you use KDE or unity or
something else.
I use "something else": Mate, but with FVWM as the window manager and without
the menu crap and without the file manager.
Ahh, I used FVWM a while back. Nice !
Try 20.04 or later - an install image on a USB stick should be enough to
figure out whether the crashes still happen.
Maybe the newer driver will fix it for you.
