Hello folks,

since about two days I'm running a machine here with 2.4.13-ac5,
and am quite satisfied with the performance. But now, I noticed
some strange output in /proc/meminfo:

$ cat /proc/meminfo

The machine is an AMD Athlon 1200, with 768 MB RAM and about 6G swap.
Is there anything more you need to investigate this problem? Then please
don't hesitate to ask.

Greetings,
Andreas
