** Description changed: I have a GeForce 8400M GS with 128MB of video memory. (Windows sees it as 128, and my purchase order from dell lists it as 128). However, the NVIDIA X Server Settings applet detects it as having 256 MB. Also, in the Xorg.0.log file contains the line "Memory: 262144 kBytes". Most things seem to function normally, except sometimes when I have many windows open, windows will refuse to redraw themselves until I close some windows and resize the window in question. I have a feeling this bug is related to the incorrect vram detection. I'm assuming this is a bug in the proprietary driver, and nothing can be done about it, but I thought I'd try reporting it nonetheless.
