2 ericdkirk. I've finally made a deb for the seatbelt script. its available here
https://garage.maemo.org/projects/seatbelt/. have fun and be prepared to have the browsers on the 770 run for hours instead of minutes without a crash

Will it benefit the n800 too or its magic swappiness is pleonastic for that?

Re: seat belt prevents crashes
 
you could experment with swappiness and get back to me
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness to see the value
echo 50 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
to change it from 1 to 100. the nokia 770 was set to 1 most systems are set at 60
my script sets it at 100 . the script sets a couple of other values as well thanks..
if programs are crashing lots set it higher . If programes that have been idle for a while are slow to respond set it lower. thanks

What happens after installation?

Where can I find the actual script?

Or does the installation add the settings to the startup sequence?

Thanks for your help.

Can anyone comment on whether this program is effective (besides the developer)?

I can vouch that installed on the newest OS2007HE it has stabilized my browsing, no more crashes unless I it a crazy flash site. But I just leave flash off anyway.

will this work on the latest official 2006 also?

should since, I think, it changes system variables. You could install it and see what happens, then report back.

I installed it, the system was more stable. But when I were playing the movies by using canola, the movies were kind of jerky. I uninstalled the program, and the problem is gone. Any idea?
