Well you've got 10GB of swap, so while the system may get dog slow, desktop
still shouldn't crash. Gnome has a work around to deal with blacklisted or less
capable video hardware. It's slower and takes up more memory, but again it
still shouldn't crash. So I'm suggesting that's a bug that may already be fixed
by upgrading. Or it might take some searching in bugzilla to find it and
possibly a work around. Or worse case it's unique to your hardware in which
case it'd be good to file a bug.
