Question #76843 on Ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/76843
Tom proposed the following answer: I doubt that Xubuntu will work on that but it might be worth trying as a LiveCd by putting the normal Xubuntu Cd in the cd/dvd-drive and reboot the computer. You should get to a menu where the default option is "Try Ubuntu without changes to this machine", this should get you to a working dsktop which we call a "LiveCd session" most distros (different linux OS's) have this as the default option (except Vector linux) but mostly they don't have such a fancy menu title. Here's a guide if you have trouble with getting to the menu in Xubuntu https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromCD A better place to ask about which distro might be best is in the DistroWatch Weekly column, just scroll righ down to the bottom and ask people there http://distrowatch.com/weekly.php?issue=20090713&mode=67 I would recommend trying a slackware based distro such as Vector linux, Wolvix, Zenwalk but something like sliTaz might be good for this machine too. I would recommend trying Vector first http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=vector http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=wolvix http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=slitaz Good luck and happy hunting Regards from Tom :) -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
