Thanks again ladoga for the help.
successfully managed to start the memtester and it all ended without any restart or freeze. Happy for that, but does it mean that my N9 does not have a RAM problem?
Anyway, last time it happened, when I posted the pictures, after reboot the display was ok, but there were no contacts, call logs, messages, pictures, etc. I ended up with reflashing my N9 and restoring things from backup (luckily less than 1 month old). I will see what will happen after another 10 days and post the results.
Thanks again

Maybe that also applies if you bought it from inside EU (via webshop or whatever)?

I shall not use any more space trying to explain why this does not work here (if you are familiar with the comic called Alan Ford or now such kind of humor/sarcasm - that is somewhat similar)
Maybe some day. Thanks again for the help

With my limited knowledge about workings of RAM and this test I'd guess that the error just wasn't spotted by the quick test. To test more throughly you might leave the loop argument out and let it run the test overnight, while the phone is charging. (when you want to end it just hit Ctrl-c)
Also being a userspace utility it can't test region belonging to the kernel (and running applications?).

hhhmmm, discouraging thoughts.
I'll try to make it to the next friday and repeat the test in both ways. at that time I should have around 8 days of working, so maybe something occurs.
will post the results.
thanks

Happens regularly to me as I ma not restarting my phone until really needed or battery dies.
It is easily resolved(in my case) by running
in terminal.

Yes, in my case it is just killing meegotouchhome(the 3 display panes - apps, events and multitasking) that solves it. I do it only when needed.
After you kill meegotouchhome the watchdog restarts it. I think after several(3-5) such restartsthe whole device will automatically reboot.
Pozdrav!
