Swap
Hello everyone,
I have a couple of different questions that I would be very grateful if people could assist me with:
1) I am having difficulties getting hibernate and suspend to work (I know these are quite unpredictable areas in Linux). For suspend, I have set my swap partition = 4 GB (I have 6 GB of RAM). Is this enough? I heard that the 2xRAM rule only applies up to 1 gb of ram and that over 4 gb is overkill.
2) As expected, fsck runs a check on every partition every so many mounts. The last two times that it has checked my /tmp partition (dev/sda7) it has told me something like: "lost+found not found - CREATED"
Is this an issue that I should worry about? Are files being corrupted or destroyed (I am using ext3)
3)The same filesystem check reported that my /home partition was 14.5% non-contiguous. I was not aware that I needed to defrag ext3. I believe this is slightly up from the last check ~30 mounts ago (I think it was ~8%). Is this anything I should worry about or will it fix itself?
Thanks a lot!
