--------
Will this script optimize N900?
I don't thinks so.

Process should be managed by operating system.
If you don't like a process
Just don't start it.
Not Kill it,unless it crashed.

I think there is a problem with the file you downloaded. The script isn't working, is not doing anything. What version did you use?

the 1st one in the thread.
Optimizen900

Re: Optimize your Nokia N900

aha..wait up, does the whole phone spazz out for a second and then comes back to life ?
i think ive downloaded another version of optimizen900
it says "now your phone is EXTRA optimized"
ill check it out now..
il wait for a few days n see if it works.

hi noipv4, i have noticed that you have really large swap. Could i know how did you make this happen and what are the benefits?

Cheers

As you're getting errors even before the first echo statement, I'd guess that you've saved the file in DOS format, not in UNIX format. You should be able to convert it using either sed/tr (either of the following two lines - the ^M is generated by pressing Ctrl-V followed by Ctrl-M):

Code:

tr -d '\r' < DOS_file > UNIX_file

sed 's/^M//' DOS_file > UNIX_file

Re: Optimize your Nokia N900

I dont read through the whole threat, but why are you not sending HUP to the processes, instead of killing them and hoping they get restarted 'by it self' (watchdog?).

Why are you switching to root & then back to user? You can just run step 3 directly.

One reason could be that dsmetool is not in the path when you run as plain "user" (you need to use /usr/sbin/dsmetool), but is found in the path after "su user" from root.

A third method could be to run "dsmetool --user=user" from root.

i THINK he used a class 6 memory card and partitioned it as swap memory..
i would also like to know if its useful.

Re: Optimize your Nokia N900

But a simple swapoff && swapon, could be give some performance in your opinion?
