Public bug reported: Ever since I upgraded to hardy, the ram usage has been reported incorrectly. At first I thought it was conky that was bugged, but now that I found another application that reports incorrectly then it seems that it is a system wide bug.
a few days ago: free reports: total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 1932840 1902976 29864 0 30060 879128 -/+ buffers/cache: 993788 939052 Swap: 979956 40548 939408 conky reports: 1.82gb/1.84gb htop reports: 970mb/1887mb gnome-system-monitor reports: 970.9mb/1.8gb clearly something is reporting the memory incorrectly. I'm quite sure that ~900mb is the correct reading as I am running openbox, not a desktop environment. --- Now i have upgraded my system to 4gb of ram, and it still displays 98% usage of ram in free and conky. This never happened in 7.10. (amd64) Motherboard: Asus M2A-VM Bios version: 1603 The ram is 4x1gb Feel free to ask me for output of anything. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- free memory reported incorrectly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/230912 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
