Note that the error messages you are seeing are most likely logged to the console and not as a direct result of you logging in. However, you are swapping like crazy at this point and you need to reduce memory pressure. Mmap() can set errno = ENOMEM in two cases: 1) A process has hit maxdsiz 2) Not enough virtual memory for the request (more swap is needed).

Your box is probably performing terribly so you need more physical memory or you need to reduce the memory load.

I also notice that you have pseudoswap turned on; that is completely useless in your case where you have more actual swap than physical memory.

>Clay: I also notice that you have pseudoswap turned on; that is completely useless in your case ...

(Yes but it allows us to know how much RAM there is and for you to comment about pseudoswap. :-)

>mmap() can set errno = ENOMEM in two cases: 1) A process has hit maxdsiz

I doubt it is this since dld errors typically occur at the start.
