Thanks a lot. Only one question left now: As the video card takes the same size memory, I should not see different memory size in different linux. Actually I have exactly the same 30 IBM boxes and they have the same Video cards and same physical memory 320M. But, from /proc/meminfo, I saw 1) Mem: 329056256 in redhat 2.2.16-22 2) Mem: 326565888 in redhat 2.4.7-10 3) Mem: 333930496 in Mandrake Linux: 2.2.17-21mdksecure
Any idea? -----Original Message----- From: Ed Wilts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 12, 2003 12:18 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Less memory reported by system On Wed, Feb 12, 2003 at 11:05:24AM -0500, Jihuang Zhou wrote: > Thanks.

Yes - the operating system doesn't see that you have shared memory - it will ask the BIOS for how memory you've got, and how much video memory. > 2.

The OS will never see it since the BIOS will strip it out first. Based on your numbers though, I'd say you've got 8MB of shared memory dedicated to video. I'll also ask nicely again for you to wrap your lines. If you don't, people will start refusing to follow up. -- 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 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
