[Bug 248876] Re: Have installed 4 gb memory. The system is only using 3.2 gb
The maximum amount of memory addressable by any 32 bit computer is 3.2 GB. If you are using a 64 bit computer (which you probably are) you will need to install the 64 bit version of Ubuntu to fully utilize your memory. You can get the 64 bit version of Ubuntu here: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download Make sure you check the box that says you have a 64 bit computer before you hit the download button. ;-) ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- Have installed 4 gb memory.

Thank you for filing this bug and help make Ubuntu better. As far as I know 32 bits linux should be able to see all your memory. But to be sure: is your kernel seeing all 4 GB? Please post the output of 'cat /proc/meminfo'. I'm setting the status of this bug to 'imcomplete' to indicate further information was asked for. ** Changed in: gnome-system-monitor (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- Have installed 4 gb memory.

[Bug 248876] Re: Have installed 4 gb memory. The system is only using 3.2 gb
Thanks. As you see the first line of your output says: MemTotal: 3369664 kB This means the kernel only sees 3 GB. Are you sure there is 4GB in the machine? Does your computer have 4 x 1 GB physical RAM modules? If so: if you boot up, there is a menu giving you the option to do a memory test. It might be informative to have that run and watch the output. -- Have installed 4 gb memory.

[Bug 248876] Re: Have installed 4 gb memory. The system is only using 3.2 gb
yes, I'm sure the computer has 4 gb (2 * 2gb), i have built it my self. I have dual OS, Ubuntu and windows vista (64 bit). I made a boot to windows and there isn't any problem there, all 4 gb is shown. That info. probably will not do you any good ;). I will do that memory test and get back to you.
