I'm pretty new to this whole thing, as I've inherited a system already put in place. The IT manager before implemented Backuppc running on Ubuntu 10.04 and then left pretty suddenly. I've been trying

Yes, you are out of RAM (and swap), but perhaps other processes are using it. Run 'top' and look for big numbers in the virt, res, and %mem columns. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell AT gmail DOT com -- RS

I'm sure there are systems running with less, but I like to use 4GB or more because the unused portion becomes filesystem cache and greatly reduces the disk seeks you need. Swap might keep the proces

Is it possible that the machine doesn't have any swap file? I opened up System Monitor, and under Memory and Swap History, memory is generally running at 85% (640 Mb), and Swap says 0 bytes of 0 byte
Its possible, but not recommended (even by the kernel guys, the kernel need at least a few bytes of swap so that some functions dont fail under memory pressure) confirm if you have or not swap by run
