[clue-tech] Memory

I'm still fairly new to Linux.  I have two systems setup.  Both with AMD 
processors and 512MB of memory.  One is loaded with Kubuntu 10 and the 
other with Suse 9.3 Prof.  Both of the system bios reads all the memory 
at bootup.  Once my system is up I notice that linux is only reporting 
128MB of memory.  Why is this?  Everywhere else I check states that 
Linux should be able to read up to 1Gig directly from the bios.  Does 
anyone have any ideas?

Michael
