I also have a Mini 9 and just installed Ubuntu 9.2 and this is what's
displayed when I run "free -m"

dyoakum@Y-MOBILE1:~$ free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:          2004        401       1603          0         14        181
-/+ buffers/cache:        206       1798
Swap:         2439          0       2439

I hope this helps.

Regards
dyoakum
