If I do a umonut /tmp and hit again it works as It should (I see the archived files). Nearly the same Problem with the Acrobat Reader pluin for Netscape. It shows only a blank page when /tmp is swapfs. I've noticed that it's possible to mount /tmp more than once. mount shows then [snip] swapfs on /dev/shm type swapfs (rw) swapfs on /tmp type swapfs (rw) swapfs on /tmp type swapfs (rw) swapfs on /tmp type swapfs (rw) swapfs on /tmp type swapfs (rw) The permissions for /tmp are rwxrwxrwt, and even -omode=777,exec didn't help.
