There's really not much the kernel can do here. Either add more swap, or find the app that's causing you to eat so much memory, and see if you can somehow convince it to use less. (The latter is probably a better bet, if something is eating up all ram/swap, giving it more will likely just make it consume even more) Dave -- http://www.codemonkey.org.uk -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
