<Solved>What happened to my swap partition?
« on: July 03, 2010, 03:28:43 PM »
Dolphin started to run real slow after I did an update yesterday.
I checked my disk usage in KDisk free, and it is only showing 2 partitions, Root and Home.

Swap doesn't show under disk usage, it's considered part of memory. In a terminal as root. try;

[root@littleboy ~]# free
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:       2041584    1985812      55772          0     120400    1229960
-/+ buffers/cache:     635452    1406132
Swap:     15807932       1628   15806304

Of what use be there for joy, if not for the sharing thereof?
