Hi Igor, Without highmem selected, /proc/meminfo tells me I have a total of 904276 KB of ram, and I get this message in my boot up log: Warning only 896MB will be used. Use a HIGHMEM enabled kernel. 896MB LOWMEM available. With highmem selected, I show the full 1280 MB and do not get that warning, but the alsa drivers produce only squeals and squawks.

Not sure how much help I'm going to be, since I'm running 2.6.6 (however using memory management, since I have 1GB in this machine). How much memory is in use when you end up loading > the Alsa drivers? Reason I ask is bc if you only are using about 300MB at the time, there's no real reason that I can think of as to why highmem would be used. -- The Moon is Waning Crescent (21% of Full) Home page at http://www.mhcable.com/~chuckh Speakfreely address 24.105.197.112:2074
