Hi
I have a trouble with centOS 4
The process kswapd0 eat almost all my memory space, and also this process get almost 100 percent of cpu, and the box go slow
I have read that this problem is fix when the kernel is upgrade but I do not know hot to update my kernel. when I type yum list \kernel* I get the following list:
[xxx@xxxxxx]# yum list \kernel* Setting up Repos addons 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00
