Yes I use right now the kernel from Karmic as KMS is not present in 2.6.28. The leak appears with the default kernel too but as the performances are worst for me with UXA, I had switched back to EXA and thought the UXA was too young for me. But KMS is only available with UXA so I've a little more investigated and with no solution, open this bug.
I measure the cached memory with the system monitor of the gnome panel on one side and using the "free" command on the other side. When the memory is said filled with cache (about 800M of 1G) the swap is beeing used. Typically: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 1004576 962184 42392 0 3396 820128 -/+ buffers/cache: 138660 865916 Swap: 1959920 161820 1798100 That with only compiz and firefox and gajim opened (and gnome-terminal). The "real" cache has been cleared i.e. running: echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches Is all this answering your questions? -- Running Out of Memory with UXA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376092 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
