I have the same. It is not related to a bad SIMM. I have 16MB too, and
90MB swap.
It only happens sporadically (once in 10 times?) depending on what
happend to my machine before. Never when I just rebooted, but often
when I have used netscape, for example.
It never happens when I use an older kernel.
