Re: Squeeze X86 with 4GByte RAM?

[Gábor Hársfalvi <hgabi84@gmail.com>]

If I run grub with "linux-image-2.6.32-5-686-bigmem (Recovery Mode)" it starts fine and I have all the 4GByte of RAM - but when I run the same without Recovery Mode it shows me black screen with blinking cursor and wait forever.

I think it was because when I give more memory to the computer also I change its videocard from NVIDIA 6600 to NVIDIA 9400GT. What should I do now? How to repair video driver?

I don't understand what you mean by "How could I see what is in the
kernel - Bigmem and PAE?".

I don't know what bigmem is, but PAE is set up by CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G,
simply grep for it in /boot/config-$(uname -r), to see if it's
available.

$ grep CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G /mnt/avlinux/boot/config-3.0.23-avl-7-pae
CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G=y
