Also, take a look at these threads.

So does that affect how we look or our seniority? ;)

Re: Major app failures
 

Righty, I've tried all the posted tricks to format but I am stuck. In File manager I am told that the virtual memory is in use (or something like that). I tried to uncheck it again just after a reboot but no luck.

I tried the Xterm commands, and got the following error:
device or resource busy.

Something is holding onto my virtual memory. Is there a way to release it? Can I find out what is using it?

i'm having the same problem!!!

Re: Major app failures
 

all of sudden my greasemonkey doesnt install scriipts anymore, and gmail mini app wont login.... i wish these little machines could run normal OSs like xubuuntu

Re: Major app failures
 

Does anyone know how to find out what it using my virtual memory? I must disable it to format and I must format to continue using my IT.
linux_autor suggested reflashing. Is this my only option left at this point?

FYI I have the mem/cpu meter in the status bar. Could this help me find the VM or even be the culprit? (there appears no way to switch it off)

Re: Major app failures
 

Similar memory card problem here - every time I tried to back up to my PC, whether with drag and drop or xcopy, it would hang the PC when going to the map\navicore folder.
I was seemingly able to go to the n810 file manager and copy it to a "backup" 4GB SDHC card.

Re: Major app failures
 

SUCESS !!!
For anyone who has had the virtual memory problem I managed to release it by rebooting and immediately going to memory, virtual memory and unchecking it. I tried this before unsucsessfully, perhaps because I waited too long or opened another app before trying to remove it. My IT hadn't even fully connected to my wireless router before I got to VM and unchecked it.

I was then able to go onto format and the Xterm size reports now yield correct values for the card.

NOW I can get on with my life!
