However you should be able to open a terminal and start the program from there, (type the name of the program) so in this case openshot. so if you do this, and it crashes see if there is any output on the terminal screen. I can do this with the geany editor but need to use the -v option for verbose mode (check man page to see if there is a similar cli switch for openshot) Output may point to what is going wrong, may not be very human friendly but sometimes the output can be very useful. There are various commands to determine what cpu you have and it's specification.
