How exactly memory is managed by Linux(SuSE). Any specific documentation? Would like to learn more about this. Will google this topic. Kshitij On 9/16/05, Kshitij Velhal <kvelhal@gmail.com> wrote:
Seems like many people believe that memory is the cause for my problems If so what options I have to fix that?
One thing I miss in my previous mails is: The SWAP partition is only 560MB. I think I should try doubling it to 1GB before runnign memtest.
Anything else to be considered?

Looks like a memory problem. As far as I know, Linux in general is more demanding in that regard. I would start with running Memtest from the Install CD for about 24 hours.
I concur. These are the classic symptoms of memory being pushed to the margin of tolerance, performance wise. Since memory is used more rigorously and managed differently in Linux, it is a much better "stress test" than that other OS. And when you fix this problem, 9.3 should "rock and roll" on that system... not just rock! :-)
