Use "swapon -s" to determine if you have a swapfile or partition in use.
If that isn't listed, try "swapon /dev/hda6" to turn it on and use the
previous command to see if it is running.
If not, recreate your swapfile with "mkswap /dev/hda6" and then use
"swapon /dev/hda6"

Hope that helps...

I've recently had a few applications get killed off by full memory. So I
looked at System Monitor and it says:
Used Memory      218MB of 502MB
Used swap            0MB of 0MB

Somethings wrong right? I've checked fstab and it looks normal (
/dev/hda6   swap swap defaults 0 0 ) but I've obviously done something
wrong if my system can't even see my swap partition.

I can't find anything helpful for 'fedora configure swap' 'fedora test
swap' on google.

ideas?

Neither swapon nor mkswap are recognised by my bash terminal. I get a lot of that trying to follow what people suggest - is something wrong with that too!?
