Hello, I recently purchased a home computer with a pcchips XCell2000 748lmrt mainboard with a celeron and 64M ram. I installed both debian and red hat linuxes but have the problem that they both see 0Mb in ram. Apparently, the card shares ram memory for video memory which is announced can be up to 8Mb. The bios lets me assign 0 or 64k of memory to a portion which corresponds to the video address. With the 64k setting I could run X with one of the 320x200 modes, with 0 none. SuperProbe does not find any memory, just reports a Tseng chipset. The questions are: with the newer kernels (>2.0.36) can the video ram be recognized? Can I assign this memory somehow? I tried to boot with the mem= argument to specify less memory but the system just sees less memory, and 0 for video. Should i try to boot into dos (windows), let those drivers configure the memory and then do a warm boot with (i think) loadlinux? Thanks in advance for any pointers, Gabriel Cruz G.R.
