Hello people, Need someones help here. I've just installed a new motherboard in my system and everything seemed to be running fine. A few apps were running really slow, especially when starting up another X window. I have since found out that SUSE is only seeing 64meg of my 256meg RAM! Does anyone know what I have to do for it to detect and use the 256meg RAM. I had a look in YAST but couldn't see anything. I'm running SUSE 6.4 When I run Windows, I have a dual boot system, it see's the 256meg RAM and uses it. Help! :-( Sean _____________________________________________________________________________ http://geocities.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo!

Try adding mem=256M at the lilo prompt. Some motherboards/bios do not report the ram size correctly to Linux. If it fixes the problem, use yast to add it to the lilo config file. Sean Oonamey wrote:
