thanks for the reply kai-heng.This laptop (Dell Inspiron 3180 w/ AMD processor
& graphic driver) originally came with Windows 10 OS. I simply replaced it with
ubuntu OS.If 4G is suffeciante for Windows - it should also be suffeciante for
ubuntu. Besides, the motherboard does not have additional slot for memory
expansion.In my view, the AMD driver needs to be upgraded to accomoted a btter
memory mangement. Because as far as I know the same laptop with Intel
processors does not seem to have the same issues.
Otherwise I have to close more apps running in the background - until hopefuly
AMD willfix this problem.
