Hello;
I have been trying out various live CDs for a few months for a particular purpose. I need a lightweight linux build for my Toshiba 4030 laptop, which I use to have sessions on another box over a wireless link. I want to remove the hard drive from the laptop (to lighten it up) and boot directly from CD into RAM (no noisy disk accesses etc -- also, the laptop becomes more or less disposable.) I'm connecting via NoMachine to the Athlon 3200 box running SuSe 9.2. DSL works really well (!!) except for one thing: the window manager isn't as responsive as the setup in miniKnoppix. So for now, I'm using miniKnoppix 2005, which cannot fit into RAM -- only 192 mb (max) on board.
How can I improve the performance of DSL's window manager? Sometimes there is (for lack of a better phrase) double rendering of the screen. Drawing is also, generally, slower than miniKnoppix. Could a heavier window manager be installed?
Many thanks.
Brian.
