Hi, I have recently upgraded the ram in my G4 AlBook (PowerBook5,4). I had two 256 Mb modules there, and replaced one of them by a 1 GB one.
OS X recognizes that, eg System Profile/Memory says Memory Slot Size Type Speed SODIMM0/J25LOWER 256 MB DDR SDRAM PC2700U-25330 SODIMM0/J25UPPER 1 GB DDR SDRAM PC2700U-25330 but % cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 cpu : 7447A, altivec supported clock : 666MHz revision : 1.1 (pvr 8003 0101) bogomips : 663.55 machine : PowerBook5,4 motherboard : PowerBook5,4 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh detected as : 287 (PowerBook G4 15") pmac flags : 0000001b L2 cache : 512K unified memory : 1024MB pmac-generation : NewWorld % cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 773552 kB MemFree: 174120 kB Buffers: 52712 kB Cached: 357844 kB SwapCached: 0 kB Active: 358896 kB Inactive: 201956 kB HighTotal: 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB LowTotal: 773552 kB LowFree: 174120 kB SwapTotal: 499992 kB SwapFree: 499992 kB Dirty: 49352 kB Writeback: 0 kB Mapped: 224580 kB Slab: 30412 kB CommitLimit: 886768 kB Committed_AS: 311040 kB PageTables: 2356 kB VmallocTotal: 186260 kB VmallocUsed: 25100 kB VmallocChunk: 159968 kB Shouldn't Memory and MemTotal be 1280MB and 1310720 Kb, respectively? I tried swapping the modules, it doesn't make any difference. I tried kernels 2.6.12-rc2 and 2.6.13.4 (I compiled both myself). I tried adding append="mem=1280M" to yaboot.conf (and of course did ybin -v after that), but didn't change anything. dmesg's first line says: Total memory = 768MB; using 2048kB for hash table (at c0400000) Thanks, Tamas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
