Re: apt/dpkg + /var/lib/dpkg/status problems
I should have some free, half a gig physical, 1 gig swap or there abouts.
My machine normally crashes whenever I exit X, (the nvidia drivers I've always assumed), but hasn't for a few days. I guess a reboot won't hurt.
I'll see if I can test the ram with memtest86 while I'm out to lunch later.
output from top:
11:29:26 up 3 days, 2:10, 16 users, load average: 0.05, 0.06, 0.08
132 processes: 130 sleeping, 1 running, 1 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states: 0.6% user, 2.6% system, 0.0% nice, 96.8% idle
Mem: 514380K total, 498200K used, 16180K free, 46024K buffers
Swap: 995988K total, 49708K used, 946280K free, 136016K cached
