=======================================
Do you have a swap partition?? I don't see one above... How big?? Are
you running one of the monster environments? (KDE or Gnome) You may want
to add more RAM. It's pretty cheap about now (but starting to climb
again, I think.. so don't waste time). You can likely add another 256mb
for about US$50. Maybe less...
