I've been trying to extend my memory card to be used as additional virtual memory. I used Control panel->Memory->Virtual (tag). When I choose either of sizes offered (from 8 MB to 32 MB in my case) and press 'OK' it displays an error window 'Unable to create virtual memory'. What might be wrong here? And also, what this built-in option actually does?It resizes or creates a file ".swap" on the memory card. Could be you have a ".swap" there already, created as a root and then it can't touch it.I checked the /media/mmc1 directory and I do not have a .swap file there. The problem is still unresolved.Andrey It is hard to tell. Best would be to describe the problem in finer detail (e.g. do you get the error message immediately or after some activity being show, etc.) In general, a bug report would be a good place to follow this: https://maemo.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi?product=haf component general, assign it to me or at least notify me of the bug number ;)
I think I found the root of my problem. It is my memory card which somehow does not have write access to it. It says ' Read-only file system' whenever I try to write any file to it. So, definitely it is not able to create a swap file there and extend virtual memory. Now I am wondering if formatting the card would solve the issue.
I have another tablet and creating a swap file there was successful. So, I did not add a bug to bugzilla because the problem is not related to the device itself.
Best Regards, Andrey
