I got a new 2GB RAM stick and I am going to add it alongside my existing 2GB card making it 2x2GB=4GB RAM.

Do I have to do anything extra to make it work as 4GB fully?

Anything to do with the PAE kernel stuff?? (I already have a PAE kernel)

If you already have the 64-bit or PAE kernel; Nope.

Either of these kernels will detect and automatically use all 4GB of memory. The pae kernel is the default for Ubuntu 12.04.
