That's a very odd bug... 3 of the 4 computers I've used a 64-bit kernel on have 4G of ram and they all seem to run fine. My friends report the same thing. Could be a problem with a specific CPU/chipset combination.. that would be most unfortunate. I hope you will add your story to that bug on launchpad. ~Ryan -- http://rmgraham.blogspot.com http://twitter.com/rmgraham --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
