This happened just after booting up and logging in. I'm running 32-bit
Intrepid on a laptop with Gnome and am on a wireless connection (which
wouldn't connect, due to lack of resources). Upon logging in, it took a
long time for the desktop environment to load.
When Gnome was finally up, I ran "free -m":
[17:28:35] /home/acraft free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 494 487 6 0 0 29
-/+ buffers/cache: 457 36
Swap: 1443 1237 205
After seeing such high swap usage, I ran top and sorted by swap:
[17:29:31] /home/acraft top
top - 17:30:05 up 25 min, 2 users, load average: 3.10, 2.94, 2.29

...
Since I couldn't connect to wireless, and NetworkManager was not responding, I
shut it down hard and started it up again:
[17:30:07] /home/acraft sudo killall NetworkManager
[17:30:36] /home/acraft sudo NetworkManager
Then I came here, found this bug, and checked my syslog (attached), which
exhibits the same behavior as Nigel's.
Hopefully this helps someone fix this problem.
