2.# - System Requirements for DSL

Rather than just listing the specs needed for DSL, read about Nick Hill and
Paul Knight's adventure with DSL and a couple of 486s.

This message was sent to John 19 Oct 2003 by Nick Hill. Paul Knight and him
did a good amount of experimenting with Dam Small and retro hardware. Their
activities culminated in a "Retro Hardware Party" where they ran DSL on a
486SX33 and a 486DX2, both with 16MB of ram.

Quote from mail:


Thank you Nick Hill and Paul Knight for bring down the old hard ware and
doing the tests!
This message is being sent from the damn small machine using Sylpheed.

We successfully used a machine- a 486SX33 16Mb ram to surf the web and send
email. Even used it as a remote station to edit pictures using the GIMP over
a broadband link. Not exactly fast, but can be done. Takes 10-15 seconds to
render news.bbc.co.uk.

The machine couldn't cope with an Ogg Vorbis stream at 11Khz/19Kbit mono.
However, I tried with a 486DX2 processor / 16Mb and it worked.. Just! The
missing FPU on the 486SX makes a difference for multimedia streams! The
486SX took 3 minutes to decode half one second. The DX2, however, coped in
real time.

We held a retro hardware 'party' this evening, complete with chocolate
biscuits and tea.

So now we know- web surfing with a modern operating system on atticware can
be done- and we now are no longer restricted to tupperware parties- we have
atticware parties!

I have attached a couple of pictures from our party. One shows the dmesg
screen showing the processor kicking out an amazing 16.58 BogoMips and the
16Mb system ram can be seen. I have also included a photo of me and paul
proudly showing off our atticware multitasking games, a (paused) instance of
XMMS and 2 browser windows.

I have included an archive of the output of dmesg and ps ax.

BTW Glinks would not work on the SX chip but works on the DX chip.


Here are some pics that they included.
