I don't know what causes this, but I have seen it on one of my boxes -- the i486 with 8 MB RAM (and 32MB swap). I haven't seen it on the AMD Duron (128MB RAM) How much memory do you have on this K6? (BTW, good job of including lots of possibly relevant information. Including the /proc/cpuinfo from my box won't help because it doesn't say anything -- I don't think the 486 family supports querying) -D
