Hi,

I have an i386 Wheezy VM here, with a 64-bit PAE enabled and 5000MB of memory,
running sid's 686-pae Linux kernel.

This reports total memory wrong:

               total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
  Mem:     894873600 1310076928 3879763968          0  180985856  708485120
  -/+ buffers/cache:  420605952  474267648
  Swap:            0          0          0

... while this reports it fine:

               total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
  Mem:          4949       1248       3700          0        172        675
  -/+ buffers/cache:        400       4548
  Swap:            0          0          0

`free -b' seems to report the memory size roughly modulo 4GB: this is
corroborated by the fact that on the same VM with 8GB of RAM, it
reports about 4GB of total memory.

All this work just fine in a Squeeze VM that's otherwise very similar
(same CPU, same kernel, same amount of memory).

Cheers,

In upstream commit d13fbc34 the divisor used is now a float.
