It is just not designed to give a full 4GB of RAM to the system, it only gives 3.4XGB RAM and the rest is really not used, then basically the system just tries to give the 0.6xGB RAM remaining a task by it being used by "System Resources" This isn't really Linux dependant. .Alejandro > > Regards > > Marcel
