choosing distro depends upon what you want to do in your system. Debian 5.0 with xfce also can be light weight. I have been using it in my system which has 384mb RAM and 2.26 GHz processor and every thing works fine. I hope it works fine with 256mb RAM too. But you must use alternate applications for the one which needs high memory like FireFox browser. But if you are searching for something lighter than that, this link can be helpful http://www.tuxradar.com/content/whats-best-lightweight-linux-distro > > Currently it has XP and is troubling a lot, so I suggested Linux, but > then when I found that the RAM was just 256MB, I was confused what to > do.
