Dear Friend Pankaj,
I believe your problem of xserver in Fedora 9 not working but works with Redhat
9, Fedora 4 etc. is not due to RAM problem.
I have installed in my college Fedora 9 successfully in Intel dot station with
128 MB RAM.
Two years back I faced similar problems when i installed Fedora 6 in old
monitors -14inch.
I solved it by editing the following file
vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
change the default depth from 24 to 16 or you can make it 8 also.. Then do
startx
I believe this would solve your problem and you need not go for light
weight linux distribution.

Hi all,
I am having a Pentium IV system with 128MB of RAM and Intex RTL 8139D Ethernet
Card. When I am installing some old linux
distributions such as Red Hat 9, Fedora Core 4 then I am able to execute X
window but my ethernet card is not being detected. And
when I am installing current linux distribution such as Fedora Core 9 then my
ethernet card is being detected but X window is not
starting due to insufficient amount of RAM. So can you please suggest me a
lightweight linux distribution which can detect my
Intex RTL 8139D ethernet card as well as I can work in X window. I will remain
thankful to you for this forever.
