Hi,
I noticed this morning I started getting this error frequently when I would try to do things like open a GPE program:
"Malformed database schema-unable to open database file for storing temporary tables"

Then I started getting out of memory errors when I tried to do stuff like opening the pdf reader. When I checked memory under the control panel it said I only 3.6 MB free but when I pulled up the details on the memory it give me the following: 4.38 MB for images, 4.24 MB for Audio Clips, 15.0 MB for Documents, 102.1 MB Installed Applications, 186 KB Other files. Which obviously means that theres roughly 120 MB missing in there somewhere. What happened to the rest of the memory? And would this be what is causing my problem the memory errors?

Thanks

Bug # 2399 may be of interest to you.

Ah, I see. Do you think that this could be causing my other issue our do you think they are probably unrelated?

3.6 MB free seems low. Do you have free space on your internal memory card or a micro/mini SD card? If so, could you move some of your data or media files to see if it helps?

I moved some stuff around and that seems to have taken care of the problem. But I am still curious what would have caused this to start happening, I didn't install any programs or add any major data between last night and this morning. Anyway while I'm on the subject does the N810 automatically clear out temp files or do you have to do that yourself.

/tmp is in memory, not written to flash, so it is destroyed and recreated on each reboot. However, I don't believe there's any scheduled process that clears it out on a running system. Applications are expected to clean up after themselves, I think.

They are but bugs can leave stuff behind. FBreader chocked on a very large RTF file I created with OpenOffice on my desktop. My tablet acted strangely after that including running out of memory. A reboot cleaned things up.
