I must in all fairness note that I already had about 16 MB of swap in use. This with a -current kernel made from the latest sources as of Monday. So I didn't test against the latest pmap.c, et. al. But I wouldn't expect this to have a negative effect. This is on a machine with 16 MB memory and 64 MB swap. Looks to me like you might have a bad SIMM, Greg. --- Gary Jennejohn Home - Gary.Jennejohn@munich.netsurf.de Work - gjennejohn@frt.dec.com
