This package worked for me when compcache didn't, so I like this package better.

Oh! I sort of didn't know a compcache package also existed. zram is the successor to compcache (a.k.a. ramzswap), so zram does obsolete compcache. However, the compcache AUR package has been updated to use zram. It seems that the compcache package can be configured to work the same way as this one, but the default behaviour is different. Specifically: - This package creates a number of zram devices equal to the number of CPUs on the system. - The compcache package creates up to 4 zram devices, defaulting to 1. - This package creates a number of zram devices whose total size is equal to the amount of installed RAM on the system. - The compcache package defaults to using 25% of installed RAM per zram device. The compcache package's behaviour is configurable; this one is not. That's likely because we followed different directions in creating these packages. I suppose I could make this one configurable, if that would help...?

Great package. :) Does it obsolete compcache? (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40063)

The error message you are seeing is from trying to set the zram_num_devices parameter (for kernel 3.2) before trying the older num_devices parameter. If you check swap space with: cat /proc/swaps You will see that zram devices are still present and enabled.

nvm, I fixed the problem by rebooting.

I think this package may need to be updated for the kernel again, or something. libkmod: index_mm_open: No such file or directory libkmod: kmod_search_moddep: could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/3.2.4-1-ck/modules.dep.bin' libkmod: index_mm_open: No such file or directory libkmod: kmod_search_moddep: could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/3.2.4-1-ck/modules.dep.bin' /etc/rc.d/zramswap: line 26: /sys/block/zram0/disksize: No such file or directory /etc/rc.d/zramswap: line 26: /sys/block/zram1/disksize: No such file or directory /etc/rc.d/zramswap: line 26: /sys/block/zram2/disksize: No such file or directory /etc/rc.d/zramswap: line 26: /sys/block/zram3/disksize: No such file or directory /dev/zram0: No such file or directory /dev/zram1: No such file or directory /dev/zram2: No such file or directory /dev/zram3: No such file or directory swapon: /dev/zram0: stat failed: No such file or directory swapon: /dev/zram1: stat failed: No such file or directory swapon: /dev/zram2: stat failed: No such file or directory swapon: /dev/zram3: stat failed: No such file or directory [DONE]

Thanks for adopting it Deciare.

Deciare commented on 2012-01-19 18:02 (UTC)

Adopted and updated to support kernel 3.2.

Feel free to take the package and fix it. I don't use it anymore. It still works for normal usage.
