[mythtv-users] Mythbuntu 32bit - how much RAM can it use?

[Kingsley Turner]

Hi-yas!

I moved my workstation motherboard into my mythbox, so now the 32-bit OS has 
access to 8G ram.
However it only "sees" 2.5G

Is there some tweak I can do to this?  I expected it to use at least 4G.

Guess I could update to 64bit Mythbuntu ... but the WAF would be low, since 
i reckon it would take at least a couple of days to sort it all out to back 
how it was (firmware for PCI cards, channel setup, etc.).

The memory is an issue because this box (given it's always on) also serves 
the kids' minecraft server, which is a real RAM hog.

thanks,
