my rss reader consistantly closes in the middle of a refresh, and never seems to fully refresh. Is this just me?

What was the last RSS feed you added to it? It might be causing problems. Also, check that you have enough space left (start xterm and do a 'df'). I've had to wipe the feed cache manually in the past.
What I've done is delete all of my feeds and go through one by one finding the culprit. That seems to have incriminated the engadget feed as causing the problem. I guess it's the huge pictures...
Can I flush the cash through the rss reader? Or do I have to do that from the terminal? Is there a way to write the rss data to an sd card?
Thanks
You can make the cache directory a symlink to a directory on your SD card. Cache-flushing should in theory work automatically -- the default image cache size is only 4 MB (adjustable in Tools->Settings) and can be flushed manually too, but in practice the reader seems to really have a problem with image-heavy feeds.
