So... you're saying that the problem may be that some programs may be more memory hungry than others, witch can have worst results on a 64 bits OS.
Right.
So this mau be a general Linux issue, and not openSUSE specific.
A general computing problem. A 64 bit os will use more memory than a 32 bit one. And Linux has always been memory hungry, unless tuned to the contrary.
Man, It never crossed my mind I would need 512MB of RAM to perform a file system check on a 850MB worth of files on a 100GB vfat file system. Gee, this is really, really scary...
Yep, I don't know why, but it is so, at least on linux.
Thanks for your reply Carlos,
