My experience with a 1.8Ghz P4/256MRAM, 32Mbyte nVidia GeForce2 MX

turn all the enhancements off and use the lowest screen size and it will just load into memory.... totally unusable though.

my impressions CPU >=1G P3 unless you have at least 128Mbyte Video RAM you're gonna be disappointed... my impression is there's nothing "special" required in the way of hardware...if you can run 09.10 on the "old laptop with ATI Rage chip and 1G Pentium-<whatever>" under *nix (maybe even windows) then you'll get much the same results using the FG-Live type CD's...whatever version

But the big thing is don't get discouraged if first you don't suceed! ... there are lots of people that will do they're utmost to help you get it running as all feedback is considered valuable as long as it's constructive (ie don't respond with "this is a load of $h!T... I'm going back to MSFS")....

Best of luck and keep us informed of how you go.
:-D ene

PS IMHO
Worth downloading the Bit-Torrent client if you don't already have Bit-Torrent capability and using that to get the ISO and don't forget the MD5SUM

Subject: [Flightgear-users] Live CD on a ATI Rage Laptop
Date: Tue, 06 Jun 2006 21:36:05 -0400

Hi everyone,

What are my chances of being able to use an FG Live CD like the Linux Tag one, or the upcoming Oskosh one on an old laptop with ATI Rage chip and 1G Pentium-<whatever>?

Do you think it would work? If it did, would a sufferable frame rate result?

Thanks,

Yavuz Onder
