Running fluxbox,firefox,gaim and gkrellm its already used 50mb of swap after 3 hours, I've got 256mb of physical memory & 1gb of swap. I know linux should use all the available memory but it should be swapping with just a few applications running. XFree86 and firefox seem to be the biggest users of memory using 28.3% and 23.8% for the memory. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
