Low Mem When Online

[Psion]

I've noticed each time I'm using my wireless CF and browsing with Opera, I get a pop-up that says I don't have enought memory and I should close a program.  But rarely do I have a pogram running, other than opera.

What can I do?

Also, I've noticed some posts mentioning symlinks to the SD of programs that should be installed on the internal mem.  How would I go about that?  That may solve my surfing issue, too.

Thanks for the assistance.

I solved this problem by setting up a swapfile.  

The easiest way to do this is to install and use the Qswap program.

Probably, You can disable the 'Fast Load' from some programs

(Option from some programs like hancom... addressbook ... when you hold and tap on it)

Thanks for the info.  I installed qswap, generated a swapfile on my SD, but when I hit "swapfile on" I get a popup saying swap can't be activated.  

Any ideas?

The easiest way to do this is to install and use the Qswap program.

You could always do it "by hand".

Hey, thanks for the direction.  I'll give it a try.

I believe qswap can only be installed in main memory?? If not, try a reinstallation.

Assuming you're using the Sharp 3.10 image, your /home will be mounted in the ramfs partition, you'll find you get better performance by creating the swapfile there, assuming you have the space.

I your CF formated in ext2?

On a 5500 its best to use "RAM" for swap this will save you burning out your SD or CF cards.
