I have an EN15000G as well, and Linux isn't stable on it.  Even without 
running X (booting to init level 3), the system would hang within a day 
or so.  Running with X with the VESA or OpenChrome drivers it was more 
likely to lock up, usually just taking a few hours.

Running NetBSD I couldn't get X to run at all (hung or panic, I don't 
remember), but without X the system was stable for days, hammering the 
CPU & Disks constantly.

So, I'm not sure where the bug is in Linux, but it's not (just) the 
video subsystem.
