Yes, you should see it. "cat /proc/swaps" should show all your swap devices and you should see /dev/ramzswap0 there, "ls /dev/ramz*" should show the ramzswap device entry, and "cat /proc/ramzswap" the usage stats.
If it is not there, try restarting it from xterm as root ("/etc/init.d/ramzswap restart")

I have gotten same "screen won't blank" thing a few days ago.

In my case I suspect about high load scenario. The device freezes and I reboot it. Then it happened.

Restarting once won't solve it. Nor restarting twice. Restarting third time do the trick.

Sorry for bad english.

(season with appopriate error handling to taste).
I do not do perl, too arcane for me to learn, but I'll happyly use your code snippet.
While you're at it, why don't you add the equivalent of "if filesize(Z)<$l: exit(1)" before truncate?

Looks good, I'll try.

But a few questions:

uninstalling can just be done by
Code:
dpkg -r *.deb
?

in the folder where the debs exist.

And does the sysvinit fix the spontaneous reboot issue ?

When uninstalling, dpkg takes package names, not filesnames. Also, it's better to use apt-get when possible as unlik dpkg, it also takes care of package dependencies. If you want to remove just the kernel, use the following. This command will automatically uninstall ramzswap-dt (and probably dt-init-scripts).

Code:
apt-get remove kernel-dt-sd
Uninstalling the other packages -- or actually reverting to old versions -- isn't trivial but certainly doable. However, it's not neccessarily recommended. :-)

No, when all goes right I do not want to revert.
I just ask it in case it goes wrong. My N810 works fine except the spontaneous reboots sometimes more than once a day. And as bonus it is faster.

I'll try.

restarting from xterm as root worked, when I typed free I then saw my swap memory. However, after restarting my N810 I am back to 0 swap memory until I restart ramzswap in xterm again. Any ideas? Thanks again!

The installing worked flawlessly. But running uname -r returns 2.6.21 is that OK ?
I see further no differences and the reboot issue is NOT resolved: two hours after the update the device rebooted spontaneously (Tear browser was running).

Did I something wrong ?

UPDATE: After half an hour it rebooted AGAIN, while Tear browsers was running.
Is this a problem in the tear browser ?

UPDATE2: After another 30 minutes (starting Firefox / Fennec , surfing a bit and closed it) it rebooted again (3rd time) !

So this patch does not help at all.

Check that the /etc/rc2.d/S??ramzswap link is there.

No, this patch doesn't solve issues with faulty hardware or old batteries, I never promised such a thing.
