Hi Gang,

probably a bit of a ridiculous question, but I ever noticed that one
of my machines I occasionally use for testing (Pentium MMX, 133 MHz)
is generally a bit slow and swaps out a lot. I didn't care, though,
until now.

I just looked at the dmesg today, and saw that only 900K are
recognized. No matter if I stuffed in a 16MB module or a 64MB one;
16MB are onboard additionally. As far as I can see, the kernel sees no
difference there.

OK, could be that this box is just crap, but I'd like to use it for a
dialin-server now. If its possible to get this thing right, it really
would do.. Somebody there who can point me to appropriate information?

Thanks for any help,
/Markus
