I've got something slighty different in that i have /dev/hdb4 as a 3M
swap and /dev/swapfile as a 512K extra swapfile.

i swapon -a (with entries in /etc/fstab) and i get something like

Adding 3812K swap on /dev/hdb4
Adding 3812K swap on /dev/hdb4 (or perhaps swapfile.. i dont remember..)

but thats right.. swapon .. says my 512K swapfile is 3M .. now i wish this
was true (compressed swap system ? *giggle*..) but 'free' reports the
right amount of swap .. sooo.. what's happening ?
