It might, but Linux is definitely only seeing a bit less than 1 GB of
that.  Does "free" report the full 2 GB on other OSes (Ubuntu Live CD,
Windows?), and/or do you see the full 2 GB with "memtest86+"?

Maybe it was a paper size issue, and installing a printer changed your
default papersize?  You can change the current setting with
"dpkg-reconfigure libpaper1".  I noticed in your system information:
 
> Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C)

If LC_ALL was set to C during installation, I think libpaper1 would
have defaulted to A4 (because "locale width" and "locale height"
return A4 size in that case)
