Hardware: Nvidia Geforce 2 GTX 64m video card Asus K7V mb On a default install using Gnome, the x server is using between 85 and 100 megs of ram. Here is what info I can think that would be relative. line from top sorting by mem usage 734 root 14 0 93876 86M 1336 S 0.7 68.9 0:41 X One small note, though it might not be relevant, the agpart module is loaded, but listed as unused by lsmod. Please let me know if there is any additional info that I can provide.
This isnt quite as insane as it looks. 64Mb of that is the video card memory, another chunk is the AGP memory mappings.
