I am not sure where we are on this bug. Has it been reproduced? Has its origin been found? It has been 3 months and I just got a notification of the posting of the bug but no comments were included in ther mail message or in the bug report on bugzilla. I was the one that posted this bugzilla request. I keep getting the request copied back to me without any additional comments. Why is this? You get a mail any time a field in the bugreport changes, such as the recent owner change. I just recently got all the procps bugs, and i haven't had time to look at this one yet. Mass reassign to new owner Mass reassign to new owner Mass reassign to new owner Could you check this versus the current release? |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.16-22 i586) Description of problem: We have a machine that has 4 - 2Gig swap areas. cat /proc/swaps and swapon -s confirm they exist. The free program returns the information that htere is 4Gig of swap area total. top returns the same eroneous value. Or is it eroneous? How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.run free or free -t 2. 3. Actual Results: [akonstam@SnowWhite /proc]$ free -t total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 4020832 162784 3858048 86128 61380 31648 -/+ buffers/cache: 69756 3951076 Swap: 4192152 0 4192152 Total: 8212984 162784 8050200 Expected Results: Swap 8384304 0 8384304 Additional info: I think from a note on the seawolf list the same behavior exists in seawolf.
