turns out that making more swap didn't work after all, but eliminating all content from Tamriel Rebuilt and Project Tamriel, brought OpenMW's ram usage (8GB) from ~80% to a much more reasonable ~23%. doesn't make OpenMW any better on what by all rights should be hella plenty of ram for a 14 year old...

so you're saying that the GPU diver caused those apps to use so much ram that it hard-locks your computer? or you're sure that CUPS just blocked them from running?

Mint is a mainstream os My experience with Mint has always been that it changes very little about Ubuntu, but what it does change, it usually changes in batshit crazy ways which break things.

just amusing glitches, fish swimming in the air above the aquarium and levitating mannequins on the 2nd floor
