Detecting memory interleaving?

I'm trying to figure out how to detect whether or not my PowerTower Pro is actually enabling interleaving for pseudo-128-bit memory access. No matter what I do NewerTech's Gauge Pro just shows that memory is being accessed at 64-bits despite every DIMM in the machine having a matching buddy in its corresponding bank.

I figure it's just as likely that this is a problem with Gauge Pro as it might be that interleaving isn't actually enabled (maybe due to Sonnet CPU upgrade PRAM patch and/or driver's?).

So, I'm wondering if there's a more surefire reliable way to detect what the memory controller is actually doing.

Nevermind. I discovered that TattleTech identifies all the DIMMs and whether or not they're considered interleaved. In my case they are, and it's just Gauge Pro which doesn't show great info.
