Hi Ian. Thanks for your reply. I've removed Ubuntu from that machine, so I'm no longer in a position to supply any details. I installed Puppy Linux and that works fine.
My feeling is that a 500MHz Celeron with 128Mb RAM does not meet the minimum requirements even for Xubuntu. It also has trouble running Windows XP. Minimalist distros such as Puppy are OK. So this is not really a bug. It's a wish-list entry - I wish there were a tool for assessing a machine in terms of what it could run. (And pigs might fly). I'll pay attention to the policies you indicated, in future, if I have any other bugs to report (I'm still an Xubuntu user, on my desktop). Please flag this one as null-and-void, or backed-out, or whatever the term is! Cheers /N IanW wrote: > Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make > Ubuntu better.
