Hi bill

Since I sent that e-mail, I looked up the specs for your workstation,
and lo, it doesn't use on-board video, so there goes that idea (it was
rather convenient, the amount of memory you're missing is about right
for video)

The missing memory is a bit of a mystery to me.  Just to rule out any
Large memory mapping nonsense type issues, can you confirm you are
indeed using 64-bit Ubuntu on this?
