[ltp] 4 GigaBytes in a thinkpad T61p

[Martin Aumueller]

Hi,

I used to use 4 GB in a 14" T61p - with a mixture of 2GB modules by two 
different vendors. I ran Ubuntu 8.04 with 32 bit and 64 bit kernels w/o any 
problems. Recently I upgraded to 8 GB and Fedora 10. No problems either.

Regards,
Martin
