   greetings all

   i'm wondering if what i am seeing on a freebsd v6.2-release (iso-cdrom images
   cut to cd) installed been runing for a about 6 months and has been doing this
   ever since installation.

   it seems to to slowly consume swap space and just locks up when it exhausts teh
   available swap space .. teh screen display verticle bars right across teh
   screen all the 16 colours over and over again.

   i never had thes problems with freebsd v2.x (when i ran x11) or v5.x just with
   v6 .. i'm trying to understand what is going on here ?? i've looked at man and
   couldn't find any thing that looks like it would be appropriate.

   pointers suggestions/explanation .. appreciated

   most kind regards

   jonathan
