I found these messages in /var/log/messages: swap_pager: out of space process 302 killed by vm_fault -- out of swap. the computer froze then rebooted. I have been unable to reboot with the same kernel. Each time I try to reboot it told me that the FPU was not working and that he was unable to reset the computer so he tried to halt the cpu After having switched off my computer, waited 2 minutes and then restarted on an old kernel I found that many files I was not working on were lost. tell me If you want me to do some tests. Thanks for your help -- Didier Derny didier@aida.org
