I've recently installed Kubuntu 6.06 alongside WinXP on my Dell Inspiron 9300 laptop. So far, I have made only marginal changes to the default Dapper install. I upgraded all the 'upgradeable' packages yesterday on Adept as well as installing qtparted and Gaim (along with whatever dependencies that those 2 apps needed). Everything works really well except for a few wireless networking issues and this other problem I am about to describe.
My laptop has 512 MB of RAM. I allocated 2 GB of swap space during installation of Kubuntu Dapper. However, when I run KSysGuard, it shows my system not using any of the allocated swap space. It reads: Swap space used: 0, Swap space free: ~512 MB. Also, KDE running one instance of Konqueror uses all but about 10-12 MB of my physical memory. Even after I close Konqueror, very little RAM is freed.
