hi,

have detected a memory-problem on my mdk8.0 box.
have installed for a few weeks now 256 MB RAM, upgraded from 64 MB. 

Now, that I have the 256 MB RAM, the system sometimes runs out of memory. 
Results are :
sometimes, the swap (=289 MB) couldn't be found
the memory-used field shows as follows :
memory total    : 255,81 MB
free            : 6,52 MB
shared memory   : 0
Buffered                : 35,1 MB
total swap      : 305 MB
free swap       : 305 MB

after calling pptp two- or three times between a short time the swap couldn't 
be found, and the system takes a very long time for EVERY action, I than make.
Sometimes I get a lot of kernel-messages, sometime nothing, and the system 
stucks.

Today in the morning - I restarted the system after a crash in yesterday, but 
no errormessages of the crash I could find now.

Before I got the adsl-box, I doesn't make experiences with ANY crash, now I 
have it sometimes 1 time and sometime 5 times a day.

A test I made for 3 days - have deinstalled and deleted the complete 
pptp-adsl-fr-1.0.2-7mdk - and had NO crashes. Now, I reinstalled it, and the 
crashes are back.

Now my questions :
is this a really known behavior ?
is there a bugfixed pptp rpm available ?
which other possibilities I have to get rid of this weird thing ?

Your hints and helps are really very welcome !
thanks in advance
bye hans
