Some memory is lost to the gfx board. Some is blocked to make room for PCI devices. When you only have 1GB there where 3GB space left for PCI so nothing had to be blocked. Usualy the parts lost to PCI should be remapped to above 4GB. But not every chipset can do that, esspecially those limited to 4GB. Or the option is turned of in the bios. My POV/ION330 board supports up to 8GB ram and I configured the gfx to use only 32MB. Still I only see 3.5GB of my 4GB ram. I'm in the same situation of wondering where my ram did go.

Alex That remains to be seen. Some people want the old ia32-libs back but so far the new maintainer hasn't uploaded it again. And I will keep using and maintaining ia32-apt-get. At the moment it is a "Pick your poison" situation. FWIW, I was always curious about whether it was possible for the Debian to provide a more sane packaging system than 'ia32-libs' for 32-bit libraries on AMD64 setups. Now that 'ia32-apt-get' has moved from experimental to unstable, I immediately switched to the new system to test it and (maybe) help iron out any bugs. In the long run, I think it makes much more sense for Debian (and its derivatives) to do things this way.

James Brown wrote: > Bob Proulx wrote: > > apt-get install memtest86+ > > It see only 3GB, not 4GB. I looked up the Acer TravelMate 3040 series and supposedly it has two 200-pin sodimm slots. This is an obvious question but are you sure your two slots both have a 2G dimm in them? Is it possible that one of them is only a 1G dimm? I myself would be inclined to test each dimm in each slot separately and make sure that each one is seen as 2G by the system independently. (Be careful for ESD damage when handling the ram.) Perhaps you have a bad dimm. Perhaps you have a bad address pin on a dimm slot. If you find that one combination isn't producing a full 2G then you have isolated a problem. If both are 2G in both slots then together the boot time BIOS ram power on self test should report 4G. If not then I think this would be a BIOS problem. You might need to check your laptop's BIOS for updates to see if this is a problem with an update. Other than these things I have no further suggestions. Good luck!
