Subject: The kernel is miscalculating my RAM...
Date: Fri, 16 May 2003 00:03:25 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200305160003.25262.techstuff@gmx.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200305140650.h4E6oCu04880@Port.imtp.ilyichevsk.odessa.ua>

ok here is what dmesg shows:
384MB LOWMEM available.

then further down:
Memory: 385584k/393216k available (2010k kernel code, 7244k reserved, 597k 
data, 128k init, 0k highmem)

now how is the little 38.../39... possible? 

and then top shows this:
Mem:    385712k total

this again is different than the others...

and finaly gkrellm is telling me that I have only 377 mb actually recognized 
out of the 384mb that the kernel detected above...

So the question is where does my 7mb go, why that weird 38.../39 difference 
and why does top report another different value.
