To avoid ivtv memory allocation error with i810 run the following: echo "vm.min_free_kbytes = 16384" >> /etc/sysctl.conf You will need to reboot for the change to take effect. I am using an Intel ca810e motherboard with embedded i810 VGA. The i810 is using the BIOS/Linux default of 16MBs graphics memory out of 128MBs total system RAM. Celeron 533MHz PVR-350 Your own results may vary. The above was not needed with KnoppMyth R4V5. rp05 |

Additional hint: Whatever you add to /etc/sysctl.conf can be activated immediately without a reboot by using: Code: sysctl -p or the specific addition can be activated like this: Code: sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=16384
Saves you another reboot. |

| Post subject: | Update: 256MBs system memory does not require changes |
sysctl -w vm.min_free_kbytes=16384 is not required for the Intel CA810E motherboard if another 128MBs is added so total system memory is 256MBs. |
