DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: gcc

yeah.. I guess it all comes down to what you call old hardware

Knoppix 3.2 and 3.3 rock on a P3/500 with 192 MB I've got here for "test to destruct" fun. As does DSL. Sounds like there may be problems with that 1.6GHz/384MB system.

well.. its a laptop with a slow (x24) cd rom drive...

I've run Knoppix 3.2 on my K6-2/475 laptop with 96 meg RAM and 12x CD - it runs fine...just takes a while to load. If you use older/slower stuff DO NOT USE KDE/GNOME! Fluxbox of IceWM make your life a lot easier and quicker and you still have access to the KDE and Gnome stuff.

yeah.. I guess that makes more sense...
