Perhaps Michael meant:

cat /proc/mtrr

reg00: base=0x000000000 (    0MB), size= 2048MB, count=1: write-back
reg01: base=0x080000000 ( 2048MB), size=  512MB, count=1: write-back
reg02: base=0x0a0000000 ( 2560MB), size=  256MB, count=1: write-back
reg03: base=0x0b0000000 ( 2816MB), size=  128MB, count=1: write-back
reg04: base=0x0b8000000 ( 2944MB), size=   64MB, count=1: write-back
reg05: base=0x0fbc00000 ( 4028MB), size=    2MB, count=1: write-combining
reg06: base=0x0fb800000 ( 4024MB), size=    4MB, count=1: write-combining
reg07: base=0x0fb000000 ( 4016MB), size=    8MB, count=1: write-combining

Please give some hint on how to read these info?    Thanks!!!
