Title:
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS lshw sees 12gb RAM but system only using 8gb
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Hi,
My motherboard died and Gigabyte had to replace it with a newer model
(specifically, a GA-970A-UD3 replacing a GA-870A-UD3). After
installing the replacement motherboard, the system boot and operated
just fine. I did notice after a few days, however, that "free" and
cat /proc/meminfo only show only 8gb of RAM:
root@s3:~# cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal: 8155016 kB
MemFree: 253264 kB
...
However, lshw DOES see all 12gb:
root@s3:~# lshw | grep -m 1 -A 50 "*-memory"

Any one have any ideas on what I need to do to get Ubuntu to see all
12gb?
Thanks.
