My feeling here is that the system cannot cope with only 256MB of ram
- did you install off a livecd? I seem to remember that a normal
install off the DVD is not possible with 256MB ram, even though the
release notes would suggest you could!

Either way I think the previous suggestion stands - try to get your
total ram over 512MB and try again. Also you might try a memory test
using the install CD - memtest86 will show if there are any memory
errors.

Not sure I could give any more useful info at this point.
