Linux for old laptop?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My friend has the following laptop:
CPU: Pentium 2 266MHz
Memory: 256MB
Hard drive: 4gb

How would you setup a usable Linux system on this? It should be able
to run web browser, open office suite, IM, play MP3, various video
formats.

Is Fedora a good choice for low powered system?

I'd think gnome may be too heavyweight WM and KDE might be a better option.

Note that this is for a novice and probably would prefer to configure
stuffs through UI rather than text editors.
