I tried this (at 3G) and it did not fix the problem, if I put the
graphics on the lowest possible settings I can buy 45 minutes to an hour
between game crashes as long as I'm careful where I go.

Which, unless someone has a better idea, leaves me with:

The couple of how-tos I found for this go beyond anything I have done
before in Linux and I don't really understand what the patch does
so before jumping into it want to ask- 

Does this patch do anything different than just limiting the memory did?

Since that already failed I don't want to do something I'm likely to
mess up a few times if there's no real chance of it fixing the
problem. :)
