Hi Dave,
Don't think any version of nouveau ever did that. Are you sure its actually
allocated the RAM?
Well I don't know exactly whats going on - but when using nouveau
instead of the proprietary nvidia driver, freesays memory useage is
about 250mb higher than normal - which would correspond
Hi again,
Using Nouveau with KMS and an unified kernel-side memory manager seems
to solve the problems :)
After updating to Fedora-12 I get working KMS, normal memory useage
and overall way better performance.
Great that I can finally remove the proprietary legacy driver!

Background: I am using a quite old version of nouveau (that one
shipped with Fedora-11), and nouveau seems to reserve the whole apg
aperture
