There's something magic about that 905MB line - a 1GB RAM machine of ours showed that amount as total RAM when on a non-4GB and non-64GB kernel. Don't know why exactly it's 905MB, but that ties up with what I saw. It's not sharing with AGP memory, because my system didn't have that. Once upgraded to a 4GB kernel, the full 1GB was visible.
