(Note: i'm running a > openwrt-_trunk_ nightly build from a few weeks ago) small update: didnt have time to check in-depth, but I did at a "opkg update" that day, which fills the tmpfs, which might be responsible for the loss of free RAM. also, stracing emacs, I saw it loading lots of charmaps on save, maybe triggered my multibyte characters in my file. they took what was left, and may be the reason for the OOM kill. Looks like ubifs is off the hook for now :) david -- GnuPG public key: http://dvdkhlng.users.sourceforge.net/dk.gpg Fingerprint: B17A DC95 D293 657B 4205 D016 7DEF 5323 C174 7D40
