Public bug reported:
When I run memtest86+ on a ThinkPad X61 with 4 GiB memory, memtest
reports failures at locations starting with "4096M". Makes sense, since
there is no memory above 4096 MiB.
Printing out all the errors slows down the program a lot. I would like
to skip testing the non-existent memory.
However (and this is the bug), pressing "c", "2", "2" (i.e., Test
Address Range | Set Upper Limit) and attempting to change the memory
range reveals bugs. It seems to be impossible to enter 4096 MiB as the
maximum. I tried various strings such as "4096m" (can't enter capital
letters) and "4294967296" but the program didn't interpret these
correctly.
memtest86+ v.40 run immediately after upgrade to oneiric
