Sounds familiar to me. I have about 1GB ram and yesterday I saw my hard disk LED was continuously on. When I checked with free, I was surprised to see some swap space being used. I thought my hard disk or ram is probably going bad and did not bother to do much research. Incidentally I was running firefox along with other apps such as thunderbird. Cannot pin point to firefox but something fishy is going on if it is not my hardware problem.... I am also using debian sid, running 2.6.7-1-386 and is updated daily. raju -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
