I have a machine here ( Tablet PC ) which uses a Transmeta Crusoe TM 5600 CPU has the known CodeMorphing Technologie which uses 16MB Ram for itself .... So Linux is not correctly detecting the amount of Ram i ve ( if i dont do cat /proc/meminfo ive the full amount and not minus the 16MB for the Codemoprhing ) and ACPI is failing to start (AE_NOMEMORY) Only if i do a "mem=XXXM" where XXX is the amount minus 16MB .... So i was wondering if Linux is not correctly handling the Transmeta CPU (???!) which would be really a pity since there is a "famous guy" working for Transmeta ???? I also have several other problems , like PCI devices are not gracefully mapped .. and so on Any hints ?? -- _____________________________________ *Robert Wörle Linux | Embedded Device* * Symplon AG* *...touch the internet* phone: +49 89 552 999 35 fax: +49 89 552 999 10 email: robert.woerle-y2s3ugBAdl9BDgjK7y7TUQ@public.gmane.org web: www.symplon.com _____________________________________ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
