Hello,
I have installed LM8 a few days ago, and everything was alright until I
tried to install StarOffice 5.2. Then, I received the message that I hadn't
enought memory.
I have 159.15 MB of RAM, and 264.04 MB of swap (on hda6), so I couldn't
understand it. But then I went to Memory Information on the Control Center
and I saw that my swap was 0.0% used.
I have tried many things: swapoff and then swapon (when I swapped-off, I
could see Swap Memory Not Available on the Control Center, so I thought this
is not the problem); repartition hda and then mkswap; even mount swap on a
file.
Nothing has worked, and my swap is still 0.0% used, so I don't have enough
memory to install StarOffice, and some games (like pingus or Xsoldier) runs
so slowly.
I have a Penthium MMX 233, and you can see my report file from HardDrake and
my fstab as attachments.
Thanks in advence,
Alejandro
