One more thing, I just found this message from July from someone seeing a similar problem: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/7/27/305 I am also running reiserfs, so I wonder if that has something to do with this. Unlike the other poster, though, I am running an unmodified kernel and have not seen the error he saw in the system logs. Here's my output from /proc/meminfo in case it helps: $ cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 4053564 kB MemFree: 144344 kB Buffers: 310824 kB Cached: 2684244 kB SwapCached: 64 kB Active: 1858644 kB Inactive: 1510808 kB SwapTotal: 65528 kB SwapFree: 65316 kB Dirty: 1772 kB Writeback: 0 kB AnonPages: 363844 kB Mapped: 46924 kB Slab: 509276 kB SReclaimable: 467220 kB SUnreclaim: 42056 kB PageTables: 9660 kB NFS_Unstable: 0 kB Bounce: 0 kB CommitLimit: 2092308 kB Committed_AS: 854520 kB VmallocTotal: 34359738367 kB VmallocUsed: 4936 kB VmallocChunk: 34359733423 kB - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
