mwahahahahah. system() is the worst way to get this kind of information.
it's slow, not portable. and system('free') won't help at all as free
output would be redirected to stdout, so you won't be able to get
anything. don't use it.

libgtop2 is part of desktop ! gnome-system-monitor and multiload-applet
use it.
info libgtop
there are also examples in libgtop/examples/
you can find a python binding in gnome-python-extras, which is probably
easier to use.
>>> import gtop
>>> m = gtop.mem()
>>> m
Struct { .buffer = 35688448, .cached = 160116736, .free =
17915904, .locked = 0, .shared = 0, .total = 527470592, .used =
509554688, .user = 313749504 }
etc ...
enjoy !
