Thanks for that info.
I have just setup 12.04 ltsppnp on a del pentium 4 with 1gb memory. It
handles 2 terminals with 256mb memory probably pentium 2. After login the
screen goes wild with any session except gnome without ..... (can't
remember detail)
I can now set the default.
I'm also running an old wikipedia with 30000 words. It's amazing what old
junk can do when there is no money available.
Response with the latest Libre Office is great. Videos also work well.
