Title: Bus Error
Post by: climber on August 30, 2007, 07:31:20 am

Hi,

after testing the new version of pdaXii13 I decided to go back to my old one and did a Nand Restore.

Now I have a problem when I want to use vim. I got the following error.

Bus error


Does anyone know this problem?

Thanks
climber

SL-C3100 pdaXii13 v5.4.7

I thought that something goes wrong so I hoped that when I go back that everything works again. But sadly not!

Can you help me to get this fixed?

it works for me...

however i found that while googling :

Q:     What does "Bus error" mean?

Usually it means your machine has run out of RAM. See if you can set up some swap space or a swap file -- that should fix the problem.

what does the free command gives you ?
