Hi,

I have installed fedora8 x86_64 on my HP DV9730 laptop. I upgrade my RAM to 4G. It shows 4096MB in BIOS but in fedora only shows 3903MB, is there any problem ? where is other 193MB?

Thanks.

===================================

Does the notebook share the ram to the videocard?

Brian

the video care is geforce 8400GS, 256MB. But it show 512M from Nvdia control program.

What's the command that I can see video memory?

Thanks.
