Debian Squeeze (x64) kullanıyorum:
# uname -srvmo
Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Jan 16 16:22:28 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux
G31M-S anakartımda 2 adet uyumlu 2 GB DDR2 çubuk var . 8GB'a kadar destekler:
Bu bir sunucu olduğu için grafikleri gerçekten umursamıyorum. Bu yüzden en düşük seviyeye ayarladım.
Internal Graphics Mode Select: Auto
Enabled, 1MB <--
Enabled, 8MB
DVMT Mode Select: Fixed Mode <--

DVMT/FIXED Memory: 128MB <--
256MB
Ancak, Linux sadece 3.19GiB belleği tespit ediyor:

Ve biraz matematik yapıyoruz:

Hemen hemen aynı cevabı alıyoruz.
Neyi kaçırıyorum?
"PCI adres alanı" argümanını tamamen satın almıyorum. İki 2GB'lık çubuktan birini alarak kurulum ekranında 2048MB gösterilir.
# cat /proc/meminfo

Bu 1,96 GB.

2GB / 2GB aldım. /proc/cpuinfo
işlemcimin 36 bit fiziksel adreslemeyi desteklediğini gösterir. 2 ^ 36 = 64GB, ki buna yakın bile değilim.
