Subject: [gentoo-user] Gentoo not detecting full amount of memory
Date: Sun, 24 Jul 2005 15:46:10 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <642958cc050724124617225ab8@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I recently got my home server back up and running after the power
supply went out.  I put some more memory in it, and it shows up fine
as 1048576 KB (1 gigabyte).  Gentoo, however, is only showing it as
904336 KB (883.14 MB) .  I'm curious as to why it's not detecting
140.86 MB.  Originally the server had a 512mb stick of generic PC2700
memory; I put 2 sticks of 256 MB (Mushkin, PC3200).  The FSB is set to
133 mhz and cpu/mem ratio is set 1:1 (Athlon XP 2400+ for the
processor).  It's running in a dual channel memory config.

mark@laeb ~ $ cat /proc/meminfo | grep Mem
MemTotal:       904336 kB
MemFree:         91224 kB

Any ideas?
