This is a UX-issue I'm not sure how to solve and hope to discuss a solution for.
I've been stuck with 8GB memory for a while and several times ran into the problem of figuring out why I was out of RAM (and turning to xentop). The issue is two fold: 1.) In the qubes domain widget, dom0 memory usage isn't displayed 2.) There is no display of "available memory" in any form. I have no idea how to solve the second problem (i.e. where to display such a number), but would suggest to add dom0 to the qubes domains widget. RAM usage could be displayed and on hover, global menu options could be displayed. (i.e. instead of VM-specific "Preferences", "Pause", "Shutdown", "Run Terminal", it would display "Global Settings", "Lock", "Shutdown(!)", "Run Terminal", or similar.) It might be a good idea to switch to display RAM in percent of available RAM. That might be a slight workaround for displaying remaining RAM. (since it's easy to glance at a list and see weather it adds up to 100, though I believe it would be cumbersome to add many small numbers in your head in case of a lot of RAM and many small VMs.) Sincerely GammaSQ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-devel" group.
