    Your kernel config is off: for 1GB:

    CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM=y
    # CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G is not set

    # CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G is not set
    CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G_OPT=y

i say go with this - it sound like a good start.

OK I'll be willing to try this - where is the file that Hugo was referring to in which I can change this, or is this rolling a new
kernel with these configs?

Cheers

Install the bigmem linux-image

Thanks for the suggestion(s). I am presuming that there is a Debian-way of compiling one's own kernel with the configs and bigmem image. Can someone point me in the direction of some decent (easy-to-follow for we kernel-rolling-impaired folk) documentation. The main Debian site docs (e.g. http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-kernel.en.html ) are still referring to the 2.4 kernel except at the end (7.4) where the docs state that udev is a dynamic replacement for /dev/ which, to be honest, doesn't make a whole bunch of sense to me.
TIA
