Install a pae kernel. I'm currently using:

[root@fatman ~]# uname -r
2.6.38.8-pclos1.pae.bfs

[root@fatman ~]# free
                     total         used           free       shared        buffers      cached

Install the 2.6.38.8-pclos1.pae kernel.

Description from Synaptic:

This kernel package contains a PAE enabled Linux 2.6.38.8-pclos1.pae kernel. It is optimised for i686 CPUs,
supports up to 64GB of high memory. The kernel timer interrupt is set to 100 HZ, defaults to using
the 'CFQ' scheduler, 'SMP' is enabled and kernel preemption is disabled. This kernel requires a CPU
with Physical Address Extensions (PAE).

Edit: Oops! O-P got here first.
