ram recognition problems

[aaron t hess <ahess@cs.uct.ac.za>]

I have 128Mb (8 shared) of ram. 
It apears that debian is only recognising 13mb of my ram.
(I am using "free" to chec this and the X log viewr and memstat)
Is there any way I can get it to use most of it, so that things do not use
so much swap.
thanxs
