I guess it would help if I send the email to the entire list not just
one person :P

On my CentOS VM (a 2.6.18 kernel), free -m shows the correct amount of
RAM. On the other hand, my desktop running Fedora 15 (2.6.38) shows that
I'm missing 40MB:
[moggers@delta6thc ~]$ free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2008 1299 709 0 84 594
-/+ buffers/cache: 621 1387
Swap: 3839 0 3839
I'm just wondering if we've always had this "lost" RAM, but only
recent
kernels show it.
