So, what do I have to put in to the file to get 256 mB of ram for my shared video card?

Thanks much.

Well, it seems that this only controls how much xorg thinks the video card has; it doesn't change the value on the card itself. So, new
question (and new thread): How do I change the value on the card? I can't from the BIOS as it gives not the opportunity to do so.

Thanks much and good-morning,
