Hi all,
I have a cheap but not-very-Linux-friendly Dell Inspiron 1501 (lspci result
attached). The processor is an Athlon 64 (Turion 64 X2) and the video
board has UMA. The graphic card claims the portion of memory
0x38000000-0x3fffffff and remaps it (through PCI) to 0xc8000000-0xcfffffff
(copy of /proc/iomem.txt attached). Now fglrx is not very good, radeon has no
3D support, I can't easily use beryl and I'm working on multithreaded software.
All this means that at least 96MB (if not 112MB) of the 128MB would be of
better use to my processes than to the graphic card.
I can (and have) limit video RAM to 32 ou 16MB in X config file.
Can I tell the MM system that the memory from 0x3a000000 onward is
"regular" memory (whatever the e820 maps are) ?
Will suspend2 and/or uswsusp mind ?
Thank you,
Loïc Grenié
