Hi!
I installed the latest Tumbleweed on a new Lenovo Ideapad S540 and the system does not recognize the full amount of RAM: I have 8GB (DDR4), but it only sees 5.7
During installation, I noticed that my RAM was not recognized properly, so much so that my request to set up a SWAP partition as large as memory resulted in a 5.7GB partition.
Now the BIOS and dmicode decode see the total amount, but other programs don't:
I tried adding "mem=8GB" at the end of the Kernel line options before booting, but it did not seem to work.
Any idea much appreciated!
