Running amd64 but 8GB memory shows as 3349972 kB



I am running Debian testing and 'uname -a' shows:

  3.13-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.13.7-1 (2014-03-25) x86_64 GNU/Linux

And 'dpkg --print-architecture' shows:

  amd64

I have 4X2GB of ram installed and BIOS confirms this at 8192.

However, Linux sees only about 4.

'dmesg' shows:

  Memory: 3334308K/3406004K available

And /proc/meminfo:

  MemTotal:        3349972 kB

This is the output from 'dmidecode'
