Title: RE: [newbie] Testing for bad RAM
Naa, I can't believe this, I have a 256 stick that crashed three computers continuously and it counted up in the bios just fine in all three.  This 128 stick isn't quite so ruthless on me but linux apps keep crashing on me left and right and weird things like the logout won't work sometimes in X...

I've been told by local computer techs that if your bios sees the ram at bootup ,( in other words detects it and counts it off on the first screen that shows your primary  and secondary IDE devices and  you can hit del to get to bios) then the ram memory is good and should be functional. I am not a technician so I am relying on their advice.

I am suspicious that my RAM is bad.  Is there anyway in linux that I can
confirm this?
