Hello,
I just got a new 1GB memory module for my presario R3000 to add to my
512 MB. The bios (and windows...) detect more than 1500MB, but linux
only sees 1139MB. Do you guys have any idea why ?
Thanks for your answers,

It sounds like you don't have a kernel configured with high memory
support. If you don't, and have more than 1GB or so you will only see
about 824MB of it, but recently some distributions patch their kernels
to have 1GB of low memory support. I would think this is what you have
encountered.
Configure your kernel to have 4GB memory support and you should be OK.
