Comment 37 for bug 1215513

@Kenneth Parker: if your problem is that zram shows up EVEN AFTER dpkg --purge zram-config, please **file a separate bug**. Note that "service zram-config stop" stops zram after the system is up, which means it has already potentially damaged your system. What you want is for the zram module to never be modprobe'd at all. There is a blacklist solution in Bug #1217189, comment 45 that seems to work for me.
