As mentioned in comment #12 this is primarily triggered by the memory
not all being below the 4GB physical boundary.  The correct solution is
to use a PAE enabled kernel.  This was discussed at Karmic UDS and the
flavours updated such that there is a generic and generic-pae kernel.
These should be selected automatically based on the installed memory
size.  But if you are running i386 and not seeing all your RAM you
should install linux-generic-pae and see if that fixes the issue.  If it
does not then you should file a new bug.

Closing this Fix Released as the original reporters issue was fixed in
Karmic by that kernel.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: In Progress => Fix Released
