ICQ is not IRC. They are very different things. Does LICQ have an IRC plugin yet?

gaim has an IRC plug-in... I haven't tried it yet as I'm satisfied with KSirc. (Which comes with SuSE.)

GAIM IRC plugin works great guys & gals! I normally use Kvirc or XChat, which are both very good and with more features, but if getting on and chatting is your goal, GAIM will take care of you quite well. GAIM also has plugins for Jabber, MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, AIM, etc. If chatting is your thing, then try GAIM. Hopefully Kinkatta, the KDE version will arrive at the same level of operation. If you are wanting a full IRC program, go with XChat or Kvirc, as either will suit your needs very nicely.

Hi, I have just upgraded a SuSE 7.2 box from 16Mb to 256Mb of RAM, do I need to do anything manually (like change the swap file size)? Phil -- Linux 2.4.4-4GB 10:35pm up 3 days, 11:29, 1 user, load average: 0.69, 0.22, 0.06

I think a safe answer is NO as far as swap space. If you had enough swap space for 16Mb then it will be enough for 256Mb Terry

I can remember being asked for the swap file size when I first installed SuSE, with the maximum being 2xRam, so I set it to 32Mb. With the Ram being 256Mb, should I change it to 512Mb, or will it do it automatically? Phil -- Linux 2.4.4-4GB 1:26am up 3 days, 14:20, 1 user, load average: 0.74, 0.35, 0.18

It will not be automatic. It will remain at 32Mb. There is NO rule requiring 2xMemory. Swap needs to be large enought so your system can run many programs once it runs out of real memory. However, if this happens often, you need to increase your real memory.

Swapfile size in general is supposed to be twice the size of RAM, though earlier Linux versions limited this to 128MB of swap space. In any case it should be made bigger than the 32MB amount needed for your previous configuration.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Nope not neccessarily. I however always like to keep my swap space at least twice the size of the amount of memory. This is not mandatory but does help with certain apps and software. But as someone else posted, if you had enough swap space for 16 MB then you should have enough for 256 MB.

Well my swap space is currently 32Mb, although I don't think it is being used since the memory upgrade, I would like to increase this to 2xRam as I plan to run a high volume Application server on this machine (JBoss/Tomcat etc.) Can the Swap file be changed easily?

Swap files can be changed easily. Swap partitions are more tricky, because they require you to repartition the disk, although if you have free (unpartitioned) HD space, you can add on an extra swap partition pretty easily. -- David Smith Tel: +44 (0)1454 462380 (direct) STMicroelectronics Fax: +44 (0)1454 617910 1000 Aztec West TINA (ST only): (065) 2380 Almondsbury Home: 01454 616963 BRISTOL Mobile: 07932 642724 BS32 4SQ Work Email: Dave.Smith@st.com Home Email: David.Smith@ds-electronics.co.uk

I forgot that the Swap file wasd in a separate partition. As I don't have any spare unpartitioned disk space, I shall have to leave it. Phil -- Linux 2.4.4-4GB 5:38pm up 3:00, 1 user, load average: 0.20, 0.12, 0.04
I've got a 2x850 pIII w 1.25 GB ram doing basically nothing for now- yet top, w, etc report the load avg as: 13.06 13.01 13.02 At the same time, unless I do something processor intensive, top says 1 cpu is 100% idle and the other is 98%. Does this make any sense at all?

To answer my own question, I have 4 mkreiserfs processes with a stat of D The created the filesystems correctly but there's obviously something wrong with the command (7.3 suse supplied). Ideas? -mab
