If so, the shared memory used by the graphics card will be deducted from the total. You also need to factor in the difference as to how different pieces calculate a megabyte. Is it 1000 kilobytes or 1024 kilobytes? Similarly, is a kilobyte a 1000 bytes or 1024 bytes? Although there are now formal standards on how these should be specified, few vendors actually use those standards. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
