Despite all of the memory installed, when I look at the memory as reported by ubuntu it shows:

I have swapped memory modules several times and tried different types of memory sticks, but the results are always the same. I cannot figure out what could be limiting the memory that is seen by linux despite the memory installed in the hardware. What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.
