Perhaps only one write-back per type of RAM module? I have two sticks of RAM, 
a 512MB and a 256MB and I get
$ cat /proc/mtrr
reg00: base=0x00000000 (   0MB), size= 512MB: write-back, count=1
reg01: base=0x20000000 ( 512MB), size= 256MB: write-back, count=1
reg02: base=0xe4000000 (3648MB), size=  32MB: write-combining, count=1
reg05: base=0xe0000000 (3584MB), size=  64MB: write-combining, count=2

reg02 is my video card. Dunno what reg05 is. I've only got 1 video card 
installed. I have a SCSI card for one of my CD-RW's, a sound card and a NIC.

Tim
