As it was saving the pixmap, which apparently is a very memory & time consuming process, my computer decided to just completely hang, no panic no nothing. Since this is the second time this has happened to me today (totally different circumstances), I decided to check the logs. Right before the copytight message of my latest boot the last message that seemed strange was /kernel: swap_pager: out of space. Now I have 128Mb swap and 64Mb ram, and I'm running a make world a few weeks old and a kernel a few days old. Kinda annoying. Anyone else seeing this? - alex
