    What do you mean "The memory is getting low"? Hard Drive or SSD storage space? Or actual memory?

    Is there a clean up utility on Linpus? I don't have a copy to run at the moment.
    From a quick google it seems it is based on fedora (or it close to).

    Can you open a terminal an give me the results of "df -l" (without the quotes). Copy paste the results here.

    I do not have linpus, so I am taking a shot in the dark.

    You can start by clearing your temporary internet files and history. If it is using a yum variant for application installations, then you should be able to find the command to clean out the program cache and on top of that you should be able to remove all files from the /tmp directory.

    But in the end I probably will need to install linpus in VM to test those.
