Summary: Wine reports not enough free memory to apps Product: Wine Version: 0.9.28. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-binary AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: tomek@xiaoka.com
I have most my memory used for disk cache (preload). smoku@wing ~ $ free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1034328 1012340 21988 0 18108 399948
-/+ buffers/cache: 594284 440044
Swap: 1068312 40 1068272
So there is about 420MB free memory (free + cached). But WINWORD complains that it has not enough memory to open any document. I guess it got reported only 43MB of pure free memory and that is really not much.
Or maybe I'm wrong with my guess? There's also plenty of free disk space: /dev/sda3 30G 29G 1,2G 97% /
