I just purchased two Athalon-based systems, each with 768M of ram.
However, under debian (potato runnin kernel 2.2.17) the OS sees only 65
M of memory. I have tried to use the append command
mem=768M
but it still sees only 65 M?
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hi,
I just got matroxfb working correctly and noticed that there is a frame
buffer console x server called XF68_FBDev. Has anyone used this in
Debian? If so are there any screenshots that show what it looks like?
I am very interested to see what it can do.
thanks
