On a related note, the files "/usr/src/linux/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt"
and "sysctl/vm.txt" refer to some variables I need to be able to set on a
system running 2.4.12. In particular, I need to be able to get to the values
in "/proc/sys/vm/freepages", "/proc/sys/vm/buffermem" and
"/proc/sys/vm/pagecache". However, despite their existence in the documentation
files, these files don't exist on a 2.4.12 system. How can I read and set these
values on a 2.4.12 system?
