Debian Multimedia :: ATI Driver: Can't Allocate Memory?
Oct 24, 2010
This is a clean install of Debian Lenny, using KDE3.5.10 desktopHave followed these instructions:http://wiki.debian.org/ATIProprietary
Using kernel 2.6.26-2-686, I think the fglrx module has been built correctly.
orac:~# modinfo fglrx
filename: /lib/modules/2.6.26-2-686/nonfree/fglrx/fglrx.ko
i just recently installed ubuntu 10.04 onto my laptop. its running as a dual boot. i only allocated about 10gb of memory and have already run out. is it possible to allocate more memory afterwards
and another bug that i am having is my shift key is not functioning properly. if anyone happens to know this issue too. so i can't do exclamations of periods, capitalizations, etc... how would you remap your keyboard
I have mounter ubuntu karmic 9.10 on a XP sp3 using vmware,i wanted to move some files through share.everything went well for 2 hours then i keep getting Cannot allocate memory.
I'm running a quite complex model, and it's taking me around a week to complete the run, and one of my colleagues says that he can run it in one-two days. After looking to several forums to know how does it work, I've seen how the memory is used (using the command ps -A --sort -rss -o comm,pme), and the model run just takes 0,3% of the memory. I bought a 4 cores and 8gb of RAM laptop to be able to run the model fast, but I don't know how to allocate the use of the memory to concentrate it in developing that task. Is that possible?
I am running BWA (burrow-wheeler alignment) and, keep getting an error that there isn't enough memory allocated. How do I change the memory allocation? I'm working on a good quality desktop only a little over a year old, so having the memory shouldn't be the problem.
Can anyone tell me is there a way to add more than 2GB memory application in a 32 bit server? I found on many threads that it is not possible to set memory limit of a particular application to more than 2GB. I am using Fedora release 8 and trying to add more than 2GB memory to tomcat. If I modify the variable CATALINA_OPTS in /opt/bobcat/bin/catalina.sh (Startup script of tomcat) and add a value greater than 2GB for memory, tomcat wont start.Is there any work around / Kernel Patches available? Suggestions??
I just switched over to openSUSE about a week ago from Ubuntu and I just purchased an Asus N13 PCI-E wireless network adapter which uses an RALink 2860 chipset. I plugged it in and openSUSE was able to detect it and everything but when I went to go configure it using YaST, it wouldn't be able to scan for networks.
So, I reinstalled my old adapter, downloaded the latest source from RALink and compiled the drivers. When I tried to use insmod on the new .ko that was compiled, I got the "Could not allocate memory" error.
If you need dmsg logs or anything else, I can reinstall the card and get those.
I went to an interview last week and there was this guy who asked a simple question that i have been trying to solve for a couple of days. I tried google but i just cant get the search keywords right. The result were just useless. Well, the question is : "How can we allocate a limited memory to a process before we start its execution" well, the question is related to an X11 system so may be some flags must be set to limit its memory.
I am developing a code where I need to store the planes of an object in a tree & also i need to store it in a list for further processing ... when I try to allocate using malloc the memory allocation when i checked this in internet , I came to know that it may because the memory that I am trying to allocate may be more than the size_t variable.
On my windows console, i have installed sun virtualbox. I only have 768MB ram and so i downloaded a trial version of eboostr. I thought it would work, but when i tried an install of 11.2, also, i tried a debian install, it did the same thing, it froze up in the middle of the install with the error Code: unable to allocate and lock memory. I guess that eboostr doesn't work, but is there a way to use a flash drive as ram in virtual box?
While Apache is off, then everything is OK, but if I start apache server after some time I get messages "Unable to fork: Cannot allocate memory" when trying to do some commands with ssh(dir,rm,top and so on).
I recently did a fresh install of squeeze. I have the stock 32 kernel along with the 34 from experimental (it is listed as stable by kernel.org). I installed version 195.36.24 of the Nvidia driver using the Nvidia installer, and after starting X the system became unresponsive.
grep '^(E' /var/log/Xorg.0.log (EE) May 21 11:28:50 NVIDIA(0): Failed to allocate primary buffer: out of memory. (EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
I find this strange considering that I have used this driver with no problem on a 33 kernel and the same video card:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation G72M [Quadro NVS 110M/GeForce Go 7300] [10de:01d7] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device [1043:1212] Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
[code]....
I believe it has 256MB of video memory, and I have 1GB of system memory. Is this just a problem with the 34 kernel?
After updating to openSUSE 11.3, and restarting my computer, I placed my computer in sleep(suspend to RAM) mode, and I lost my internet connectivity. I noticed that my computer was only connected through ethernet. After entering "dhclient eth0" in a terminal, I received the following output.
Code:
RTNETLINK answers: Cannot allocate memory
This is the first time that I have had issues with connecting to the Internet using Ethernet.
My mail server stopped working this weekend, when I got in today I restarted and all the emails came through. The panic_log shows: daemon: accept process fork failed: Cannot allocate memory several times over the course of a few minutes. Can anyone give me advice on troubleshooting this one?
I am writing a function(in C language in Linux) to initialize an array of a structure from a mysql table by calling a function by reference but I have a problem with call this function by reference . this is my program:PHP Code:
I get errors trying to virtual IPv6 Addresses i a lab environment. It works fine up to 2033 (?) adrressses, but when I try to add more i get "Cannot allocate memory" error:
I recently had to move to a new machine, everything went well except for one thing. I did fresh installation of LAMP server all with default configs. Every time I'm using PHP script to that invokes include, require or require_once I get the following error:
Code: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 20971520 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes) in /var/www/index.php on line 2 index.php file: PHP Code: <?php include "index.php";?> icukapi.php file: PHP Code: <?php echo "test";?>
My memory_limit in php.ini is set to 20M. I tried to increase that however it didn't quite work. PHP seems to allocate all possible space and return that message every time i try. If somebody has an idea of how to fix it I would be more than grateful. I spend quite a long time searching for an answer however the all things i found suggested increating memory_limit which in this case doesn't work.
Do notice the line in the above quote ""sh": java.io.IOException: error=12, Cannot allocate memory."
The server will generate a world, but you can not connect to it using the MC client. Does anyone know what the problem is? I have googled for this problem for literally the past 4 hours and I am getting no where.
Currently using Nvidia driver version 195.36.31, it's the version that works with Nvidia-kernel-dkms, would updating Nvidia driver to the current 275.09.07 driver version break my setup?
I have installed Debian Lenny today from netinst cd. It all went good, hen I installed some basic utilities, daemons and libraries like dbus, hal, libgtk2.0, libasound2, alsa-utils, htop (for checking system load). Then I installed X.org with commandaptitude install -R xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-input-mouse xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-video-intel xinit xterm twmI used -R to pull less dependencies. When I ran startx X Server started, and I got on twm. But when I checked on htop, my memory usage was 175MB, and before starting X Server it was only 25MB. Why is X Server using so much memory on Lenny? I also have Debian Sqeeze on a different partition, it uses so much memory with all gnome services running+ iceweasel and amsn.
How can I decrease the amount of video memory in a debian squeeze laptop? The amount of video memory is 1GB and I want to reduce it to 512MB or 256MB. How can I do this
I want to install VGA driver on debian squeeze. my VGA is "Intel Corporation 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller".I do not know which driver I must install for this VGA.Does Linux recognize related driver ?
Running debian sid. I have the Debian 2.6.32-trunk kernel installed and the liquorix kernel.
I use sgfxi to install the nvidia driver. Normally sgfxi allegedly strips out all prior nvidia, using both the nvidia uninstaller and purging any debian nvidia packages.
Today when I updated the liquorix kernel and reinstalled the drivers for the new kernel, it was still installed in the old kernel. Normally it is just installed in one kernel.
GLX Renderer GeForce 9400 GT/PCI/SSE2 GLX Version 3.2.0 NVIDIA 190.53 Direct Rendering Yes
I guess the questions is, is this a new feature or just some weird glitch? Also I only get the nvidia splash on the Debian kernel and not on the liquorix kernel.
I have no idea what that means the web cam i ordered says "Make sure you have Linux UVC driver installed." How do I check and if I don't have one how do i get one? When installing Squeeze i have to do the text install cause my PC can handle the Graphical instillation for some reason so i installed GNOME with this apt-get install gnome So is a UVC driver included in that instillation?
