I'm getting this message when i try to install applications from app manger:

"Not enough space in application install memory.Uninstall some applications to free enough space for this application"

I checked my free space memory for applications! Its 174 mb! Why I'm getting this error even for applications whose sizes are in KBs ?

Sounds like Rootfs is low.

Try a few of the tips here: Free_up_rootfs_space.

You gotta computer? What kind?

You might want to put basic information about what device you are using in your question.

There is not only rootfs, that might get filled to capacity. You might want to get some debugging output from the simple command
Code:
df
in X-Terminal application.
But: This error might just be misleading at all, please also look into the protocol/log of the application manager for further information

First: Do not post one-liners! Your N900's problems deserve some more info!
Second: Search the forum!
Third: Open X-Terminal application and type:
Code:
df
,then hit <ENTER> and read the output or copy and paste it here.
Fourth: Open application manager, tap on the upper menu bar and select protocol/log, read it or save it and attach to your next post!
Fifth: Relax and take it not too serious!

This does not look critical.
Please give the output of the commands
Code:
mount
ls -l /var/cache/apt
