[Trisquel-users] Trisquel Mini on a netbook with 700MHz CPU and 512MB RAM

[abhijithb21]

I am looking forward to buy this very affordable  
netbook(http://idasystems.net/products/smartbook) which is a bit low on  
specs. It cums with a custom distro based on Ubuntu Mavericks that obviously  
does not suit me and is certainly outdated. I am playing with Trisquel Mini  
on my PC and I noticed I can make it run using about 150MB RAM if I switch  
from LightDM to LxDM. CPU usage was also minimal. Then it dawned on me that I  
did not check them during the installation process. So I booted again from a  
Live USB. Sadly RAM and CPU usage increases by a large margin when the  
installer configures the system. Any workaround?
