Here's what it reports here. 9.04, 4 gb ram, 64 bit system.

Mem:   3866828k total,  3847104k used,    19724k free,     9760k buffers
Swap:  8193140k total,   649680k used,  7543460k free,  2903656k cached


Total memory is a bit less than 4 gigs, but not that much, because
some of that is reserved for the on board video as well as the kernel
itself, and not counted in the Mem total.

Are you by chance using a 32 bit kernel?
