I visited Gortwog after getting a dream from Medora. He told me that
the Dust is at "The Cathedral of Jubith" on Balfiera Isle. So I have
hopped out to the fast travel screen to go there - it is not on my
map...no variation of the name is on the map. It is not in any other
province. I think a bug is crawling around here. Can somebody tell me
the location of this place relative to some other towns? Hopefully it
is a fixed location rather than a randomly generated one.
BTW: patch 179, huge install, no major other problems noted until this
point. Character is about level 22, a spellsword, not hacked. No
skills above about 82% and I do not have many possessions.
Thanks for any help. I really want to finish this adventure.

I don't know the answer--haven't worked on the main quest yet, even
with 100's of hours of play in (guess I fear I'll lose my interest
after completing the main quests), but, for what it's worth, the 191
patch text says it specifically fixed map problems for the main quests.
Of course it said it fixed the climbing skill, and it didn't, etc.
As for all the patches, 179 really helped cut down on crashes for me,
and if 191 gets rid of the OBJECT memory disaster, it will be worth it
despite its other shortcomings.

2. With Oghmeum's Infinium, or whatever it's called, the artifact that
gives 30-50 skill points, can those be applied to skills cut off at 95
(to make them a 100) and so get another level (with three such)? And
for that matter, if you give all skills to level makers (prim, top two
mag, top min), do you gain two levels? one level? none? Or do you
crash the game by trying any of these things?
Thanks.

1. I've never had enough Spell Points to try that one (yet). But if
text came up, I would think that should have been the correct daedra.
2. It increases attributes, not skills. The amount has been 30
everytime I tried it, even though the description of the item when you
press "INFO" says 50.
A peculiar thing happened this last time I got the book. I now have
191 on my system. When I got the book, I saved the game. Then I used
it, exited the library I was in, killed an enemy who had been
following me, went to another town, and started selling off booty.
When I reached the armor from the last enemy the game crashed with
error 116. So I reloaded from before using the book. Used the book,
started to leave the library and noticed a treasure chest where I had
been standing. The treasure consisted of the Ingredients column of my
inventory. I picked it up, and repeated the other steps above. This
time when I sold the armor from the last enemy there was no crash.
Since the book was the last item in the column before the Ingredients
column, I guess that when I used it the program dropped the rest of my
personal belongings. Somehow that caused the program to crash when I
tried to sell things I had picked up after that. I haven't seen that
sort of thing since the "disappearing ship's inventory upon item
enchantment" problem that was happening a couple of patches ago.

If you have trouble getting the map marked on your fast travel map, run
the program FIXSAVE, which is included in the 1.04.191 patch. It will
activate the map for you. The quest has been fixed in one of the
patches. However, because often the quest is already running by the time
you get the patch, its too late to be updated.
Also, be sure to back up your save games before running fixsave. Like
any other repair program, it runs the risk of damaging your game.
