[Bug 1321938] Re: [Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 (rev. 3.0)] Ubuntu 12.04 LTS lshw sees 12gb RAM but system only using 8gb
Hi Christopher,
OK, great, thanks! And done (see results below). Unfortunatley, the
problem is to be found in the upstream kernel as well. :(
I'll change the tags as you direct momentarily.
What happens next?
Thanks,
Doug
