Since i disabled it my zram is not working anymore.
How did you enable it? What’s the error message?
I activated it by Using a udev rule and Optimizing swap on zram on the arch wiki
Zramctl clearly shows it’s available?
No idea. Personally I only used zram-generator, and that always worked. Maybe check the steps from the wiki again.
I agree that using zram-generator
is the simple way of doing it. I also used zram-generator
.
Well i tested it on my older notebook which was working fine for 2 weeks using zram. i ran updates just 2 minutes ago and suddenly the zram is not working anymore after rebooting the machine (while it did during boot before the updates).
It seems a update is causing this problem, any idea how i can trace this back to which update ?
I used the arch wiki to setup my zram. Yes fstab is included.
/dev/zram0 none swap defaults,discard,pri=100 0 0
The issue started after updates today since i tested it on another notebook which had no issues till it got updated today.
/etc/systemd/swap.conf ?
I also followed the wiki and used zramswap, not a udev rule. In my case /etc/fstab is not needed.
Swap: 3.1Gi 0B 3.1Gi
You can see your latest updates in file
/var/log/pacman.log.
I misunderstood your message, well i do use fstab and now want to figure out which updated caused this.
Thanks for the info
Thanks will look into it.

Also, just to be sure:
cat /etc/modules-load.d/zram.conf
cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-zram.rules
