Trying to check the memory at newly bought notebook I found a bug in the
memtest86+ version 4.20 in ubuntu 12.10, in ubuntu 12.04 it is ok. The
bug is reported at least in Fedora and Opensuse. It is assumed that the
bug is caused by the gcc-4.7.
It is easily reproducible - select the test #7 in memtest or just wait
till it - starting from the 129Mb it will report a lot of errors. I have
checked it on three different systems , two of them I use on a daily
basis and would note if RAM is really bad.
