No, do
It's beacuse of the Linux memory management. Almost all your RAM is filled
up with cache files. When a process needs more memory, Linux simply frees
what is needed by cleaning up some of that cache.
At work, I run pretty much the same services, plus an ICQ server (Iserverd,

LINUX uses up memory for buffers and cache, but will

What do free and/or vmstat tell you?

Oh yeah, I also have this behaviour. I even bought more RAM because of that

The process in cause was one of the children of the X process. But I don't

The motherboard I use is a PC Chips SIS 730S M810LR-H, and uses *shared* memory for

of the RAM went to. Minor changes to the bios fixed the problem

physical memory, and sometimes this is resolved by passing the 'mem' parm to
the kernel on bootup. But all the documentation I've seen is for lilo, but

Put it in /etc/grub.conf?
On the kernel line in /etc/grub.conf add "mem=192M" . Be sure to
remember the M or it will be k, or megs. Also you may need to do
slightly less than 192.
PS- Remember you can edit the grub configuration at the grub prompt.

No ideas, but lots of questions. What motherboard (and what chipset is
used)? Does your BIOS tell you that it recognizes all 192MB? Did a
previous kernel or version of Linux? If you dual boot into (gasp) a
legacy operating system like Windows XP, does it recognize all 192MB?
