I usually dislike the music in games athough some dont have music...
so a play a little with the e2 music player, and my 3d games start to lag.
Instead of overclocking the e2, can we swap a little more ?  Wink

You MUST make a swap partition instead of using a swap file. It's better. All the recent Firmwares support swap and ext3 partitions.  Actually, I'm using a 64MB Swap Partition and it's pretty cool and ENOUGH. A 512MB Swap file is kinda USELESS, because our rokrs won't ever need to load such a big applications Wink

swapfile can be generated using 'dd'

Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=swapfile bs=1024 count=30720

This will generate a 30mb swapfile
