Description
There is some problem with swap files and mindi as you know. Here I have attached my log file from mindi and a text capture of the "swapon -s" output from console which shows the swapfile is in use. I do assume you are checking for swap files and not always swap partition? To help out the diagnosis I will include some details. The swap file was created via this web page "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq" seems like the standard thing. It is also created on the last partition on the disk which is NOT included in the lvm scheme, which may have some bearing. Also I have the service "swapspace" enabled on the drive which may be of importance, although for the logs I have sent I disabled "swapspace" service and then ran mindi. The only reason I have a swap file set up on that partition is that vmware complains about it when I run windows 7 as a guest, otherwise I never use one on this machine. Maybe this will help and certainly I would want to hear from you if there is a solution to the problem as I want to use mondo on a couple of linux boxes here. Thanks for your time, Lee P.S. I have no idea what the differing severity levels mean, maybe this could be documented somewhere for no developers.
Ok could not figure out how to attach files to ticket so the code quotes are the logs.
