Ram Question

[Jeremy Kruer]

Hello,
 
I installed Fedora Core on my PC at home and it is using almost all of
the Ram that my PC has (using about 240mb of 256mb).  I have tried
selecting all packages and I have also tried doing the default Desktop
install but both end up taking almost all of my ram when the PC is doing
nothing.  I have installed other Linux distros and they only took around
96MB when running KDE idle.  
 
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can free up some RAM?
 
Thanks,
 
Jeremy
