I tried to install zRam using following commands in terminal -



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:shnatsel/zram
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install zramswap-enabler


But it throws the following error which says that the package is not available,



E: Couldn't find package zramswap-enabler


I could not even find any repository with name shnatsel/zram or similar in my system.



As an alternative, i tried to install it from its deb file, which throws dependency error even though i have kernel 2.6.38-13-generic installed in my system.



Dependency Error:



Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: linux (>= 2.6.37.1)|linux-image (>= 2.6.37.1)|linux-generic (>= 2.6.37.1)|linux-image-generic (>= 2.6.37.1)|linux-image-generic-pae (>= 2.6.37.1)|linux-server (>= 2.6.37.1)|linux-virtual (>= 2.6.37.1)|linux-image-server (>= 2.6.37.1)|linux-image-virtual (>= 2.6.37.1)


Is there any way to fix it ?

That ppa is for Ubuntu 11.04 / 11.10 (as you can see when you click on technical details).



That is also the reason for your dependency error when you try to install the .deb manually.



For Ubuntu 11.10+ versions, this is available in the official repositories as: zram-config. You just need to run $ sudo apt install zram-config to install it.
