It does not seem to be true, since when I check my Swap when that message is reported, I always have plenty free.. I did not get this message before the code for insufficient swap was added... When I have 64 megs of ram, do I really need 126mb swap when I rarely dip more than 10 megs into swap? The systems are used for personal use, one runs X, one doesnt. One is P120, 64mb edo, 50 some megs swap, slow scsi drives, the other is p233mmx, 64mb sdram, 74M swap, EIDE hd. WOuld any other details he helpful? Thanks in advance.
