Yes, I really would like to try this, but I do not know how this has to be done. Can anybody lend me a hand?

But this will only make sense for a swap living on the RS-MMC. If you are running with a swap file on the internal flash, you would not want to swapoff when the RS-MMC lid is opened... Do you think, detection of the prefix /dev/mmcblk0 for a swap device - or /media/mmc1/ for a swap file - in /proc/swaps, is good enough to conclude, that the swap lives on the RS-MMC? Is absense of these prefixes good enough to conclude, that the swap down _not_ live on the RS-MMC? > Also, please scan not just for swap files, but also for swap > partitions - Yes, via /proc/swaps I autodetect an active swap-file or -device, if none has been configured in the Load-Plugin applet settings. > I prefer to have a swap partition Me too, I use /dev/mmcblk0p2 - I repartitioned the RS-MMC with two partitions: mmcblk0p1 with 480MB FAT and mmcblk0p2 with 30 MB swap. USB-plugging the N770 to the PC only umounts the 1st partition, the swap on the seconds remains available. Armin. -- --- May the Source be with you!
