Mandrake Linux user sdw has a problem with his 2 GB system memory system: 2.4.7 used the full 2GB just fine. 2.4.18 with Mandrake 8.2 only sees 900MB, even when I add 'mem=2048M' to the grub command line. This is a Dell 2450 with dual PIII 866, 2GB ECC ram, adaptec SCSI. A look at /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Configure.help helps solving this mystery: --- quote --- "High Memory support CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems. However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called "high memory". If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with more than 960 megabytes of total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB" split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as possible. If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then answer "4GB" here." --- end quote --- Now look at Mandrakesoft's standard kernel configuration: $ grep -i mem /boot/config CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM=y # CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G is not set # CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G is not set Mandrakesoft does provide a kernel with support for high memory configurations, the aptly named kernel-enterprise-2.4.18.6mdk package. This kernel contains HighMem as well as SMP support and should let you use your full amount fo RAM." > -----Mensaje original----- > De: Hugo Vega [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Enviado el: Martes, 30 de Julio de 2002 10:53 a.m. > Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Asunto: Re: Problemas con reconocimiento de memoria en Mandrake > > > > Intenta buscarlo y si no me dices y yo posteo la pegunta en > Mandrake-expert o vos mismo te inscribes en: > > http://www.mandrakelinux.com/es/flists.php3 > > > Hay que estar inscrito para postear preguntas, quiero preguntar como > desactivar el menu del boton derecho pero no quiero tener que inscribirme > > > -- > Desuscripci�n: escriba a [EMAIL PROTECTED], tema > 'unsubscribe' > Problemas a: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linux.or.cr/listas -- Desuscripci�n: escriba a [EMAIL PROTECTED], tema 'unsubscribe' Problemas a: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linux.or.cr/listas
