What do you think?
By the way, the error became apparent when my server was abornormally shutdown. Could it be the cause of the error? How can I fix it?
Thanks
humms - i don't see anything there -
i would do a swap off and then mkswap /dev/<device> where the <device> is the phyisical drive and then a swap on and see if that fixes it.

I did the procedure above but still no joy : (
Thanks
are you running squid ? that is the only remotely useful results i am getting from google
results
can you also post relevant items from /var/log/messages/ . from what i do see this does not have much to do with swap but with networking functions.

Do you have HIgh Memory parameter enabled on your kernel?

Hi Trickster,
No, I turned off the High Memory Support during my kernel compilation. I only have 1GB of memory. and have used 2x of it for my swap.
