Due to kernel address map limitations, unless your kernel is configured for at least 4GB, only about 900MB will be recognized. You can tell if you have this problem by running "cat /proc/meminfo".

I guess I'm ok, then? bruno@frank:~$ cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 1036524 kB
That looks good. I expect a few MBs difference due to legacy hardware issues, chipset differences and BIOS settings. Finally you may want to think about testing the memory, especially if you suspect any instability, but that's a different thread.
