Thanks. I seem to get various processes eating immense amounts of time and memory when the tablet gets into wonky states, but I haven't found what *triggers* it yet. >>>> It >>>> shouldn't eat >50% CPU for any longer period of time.

I've reflashed, and installed even less than before (I'm putting things back one at a time and waiting a while, to see when weirdness begins). I haven't had one of the weird sluggish episodes (which is when I found the various processes eating so much time) yet, but I do have the battery running down in ways I don't understand. Also I'll lock the screen and put it down, and when I push power the next day get what I think is a boot (does the progress bar go across the bottom of the Nokia logo screen for anything except a real boot?). So far all I've installed since the reflash (with what I remember as 51-3 of OS2008) is OpenSsh and FBREADER. I'm in the middle of a book in FBREADER, so that's the key application at the moment :-). > Good idea. One could also check what "dmesg" says, whether it shows > anything suspicious. Good point, should have looked at that before. I'll keep that in mind in future (tablet is at home, I'm at work now). -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b@xxxxxxxx; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info _______________________________________________ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@xxxxxxxxx https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users
