OK....  quite a bit of memory available.

Heck, even on my VM (running F18-64) with just over 1GB of memory I have....

[root@f18x ~]# modprobe -v nfs
insmod /lib/modules/3.7.9-201.fc18.x86_64/kernel/fs/fscache/fscache.ko
insmod 
/lib/modules/3.7.9-201.fc18.x86_64/kernel/net/dns_resolver/dns_resolver.ko
insmod /lib/modules/3.7.9-201.fc18.x86_64/kernel/net/sunrpc/sunrpc.ko
insmod /lib/modules/3.7.9-201.fc18.x86_64/kernel/fs/lockd/lockd.ko
insmod /lib/modules/3.7.9-201.fc18.x86_64/kernel/fs/nfs/nfs.ko

[root@f18x ~]# free -m
             total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached

I notice you're using the 32 bit PAE kernel, which of course you need with that 
much memory.  Is it safe to assume your system can't use 64-bit OS?
