hippocampe Posted January 24, 2003 Report Share Posted January 24, 2003 When I installed Mdk 9, I made it use an already existing swap partition. It's size is 509 Mb and is properly reported by Diskdrake. Whenever I run the command free I get this instead: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 256936 244736 12200 0 3172 127580 -/+ buffers/cache: 113984 142952 Swap: 248968 2948 246020 Now the swap size is half of what it's supposed to be!!! What gives :?: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Counterspy Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 I don't know why you are getting this result. Install Gkrellm and see what it says in real time. Counterspy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 what does procinfo say? procinfo Linux 2.4.19-16mdk (quintela@bi.mandrakesoft.com) (gcc 3.2 ) #1 Fri Sep 20 18:15:05 CEST 2002 1CPU [localhost] Memory: Total Used Free Shared Buffers Cached Mem: 191112 186684 4428 0 7708 75964 Swap: 562192 22776 539416 Could it be possible that diskdrake made its own swap, ignoring by some mistake, your wishes? Just a thought. I think you would have noticed it in diskdrake but...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippocampe Posted January 25, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 uhh, I couldn't find procinfo. It doesn't seem to be on the install CDs. I tried downloading it but it showed a myriad of unsatisfied dependencies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 from ML9.0 [bvc@localhost bvc]$ urpmq -g procinfo Monitoring/procinfo [bvc@localhost bvc]$ rpm -q procinfo procinfo-18-2mdk [bvc@localhost bvc] Maybe you should (with no rpm proccess running)see if there're any _db.0? files in /var/lib/rpm that you need to delete and run rpm --rebuilddb and rpm --initdb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
