I am very new to this wonderful LINUX world, and let me add, it rocks.
I am currently running RedHat 7.2. The problem I encounter is that my REdHat keeps crashing. Could it be a swap issue?? The partition my REdHat sits on is 5gig, with a swap of 130 meg.
I am using the X desktop. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.....
Alex

Re: Redhat 7.2 Crashing
What are you doing before it crashes ? (did you just launch an application, was it just sitting there, try to switch desktops, just click somewhere)
We need more details to be able to give you any sort of accurate prognosis.

Re: Redhat 7.2 Crashing
apologies for such a brief message :
CPU : 700 celeron
Graphics card : Geforce2 64meg
Hdd : 80Gb (Seagate)
NIC : Realtek 10/100 (full duplex)
I can be running any application. Lastnight I was trying to connect to the internet. I was doing this through the GUI. The only other thing I had open was a shell which I was mucking around with new commands I had learnt.
I hope this helps.
Alex

Re: Redhat 7.2 Crashing
With the system up and running, post the contents of /proc/meminfo to the forum so we can get a better idea.

Re: Redhat 7.2 Crashing
If you dont't have space on your HD to create a bigger swap partition, you can just create a swap file:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1M count=220
# mkswap /swapfile
# swapon /swapfile
To automatize the swapfile activation, edit /etc/fstab and add:
/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0
