My Hades has 128 MB. When the Hades is booted I usualy have some 119 MB 
left. I've had a memory problem the time I was using 'tcsh' as shell. 
Somehow 'tcsh' or something else managed to eat away all available memory. 
However when this happened I still could launch a prog or shell. They give 
me a warning and died then but I could launch.
The problem Francois and I've is that we can't do anything. Even 
[control]+[alt]+[q] to call 'nclossure.app' doesn't work.
Once I've had this problem just after a reboot.

The problem occured the first time after I installed the MiNT '98 package 
somewhere begin july. I was using freeMiNT 1.15.2b at that time.
