Jeff Lane, as per http://download.lenovo.com/express/ddfm.html an update is available for your BIOS (1.25/1.16). If you update to this, does it change anything?
If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-1.16-1.21 needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/994103 Title: [Lenovo E325] Odd variance in memory amounts available to system Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Noticed this during certification of Precise on the E325 (201106-8081). The memory/info test failed in checkbox due to a large variance in the amount of memory installed according to BIOS (via DMI) and that available to the OS according to /proc. To see this, use the following: sudo /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/memory_compare Here's the output I noticed: ubuntu@201106-8081:~$ sudo /usr/share/checkbox/scripts/memory_compare Meminfo total: 3639368 kB DMI total: 4096000 kB Accuracy: 88.00 Memory totals not close enough ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-23-generic 3.2.0-23.36 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-23.36-generic 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-23-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
