Hi, I still have my IIci with 32Meg of RAM.
I have the following output for ps -aux :

What I find strange is the %mem of (swapper) (ioflush) etc which is 138.1

I also have the following lines in dmesg:

total memory = 16384 KB
avail memory = 27128 KB
using 230 buffers containing 920 KB of memory

I have more available memory than the total ?

This explains the value in ps -aux, but is that normal ?
I've set the correct value in the booter for the RAM.

Anyone Can explain this ?

Thanks,

Remi
