the command cf disk shows only 135 MB swap space. and RAM is 256 MB. do i have to increase the swap space? if so, what is the best way to do this?

similarly, when i give hdparm command (in response to devries's post ) now i get the follwing message in konsole

/dev/hda:

multcount = 16 (on)

IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit)

unmaskirq = 0 (off)

using_dma = 1 (on)

keepsettings = 0 (off)

readonly = 0 (off)

readahead = 256 (on)

geometry = 16383/255/63, sectors = 78242976, start = 0

is there any change required?

plz help

thanks a lot for your detailed reply. i have only 256 RAM. so how much space be given for swap? is the speed of the system dependent on the space available for swap?

thanks a lot for your reply.

in fact, there is some improvement in the speed of the system now

but when the command hdparm.. is given in konsole, the message comes:/dev not supported by hdparm.

is it any problem?

thanks in advance

Mandrake uses urpmi to install software (read the FAQs). Make sure you have added all the important repositories.
