Memory tips for Debian on t5135

These are my notes on how to reduce memory consumption of debian on an HP t5135 thin client.

Add to modules blacklist:

blacklist snd_via82xx
blacklist snd_ac97_codec
blacklist snd_pcm
blacklist snd_timer
blacklist snd_mpu401_uart
blacklist snd_rawmidi
blacklist snd_seq_device
blacklist via82cxxx_audio
blacklist uart401
blacklist parport_pc
blacklist parport
blacklist pcspkr
blacklist soundcore
blacklist sound
blacklist via82cxxx_audio

Remove device mapper from init scripts:

update-rc.d -f libdevmapper1.02 remove

Edit /etc/default/acpid:

MODULES="processor button thermal"

Hello,

Did you get the network working?
module vai-rhine is loaded, ifup eth0 gives no device

Greetz,

Yes - these work fine for me. What does dmesg say? You using debian?
