WOW thank you I never thought it like a gaming platform, more like a always on pc! Wonderful idea, also I'll try your OS

The fact is that Ubuntu 10.04 works fine, but I spent two days trying to install a driver and I just can't cause I am a newbie fighting with an unsupported distro. I already give my system access to the old repositories but something is always missing, or not updatable or a lot of other things...

I don't really know, I have some of those as part of an old security system. I think they used them to control the alarms and some IP cameras. I have a bounce of them and I'm trying to not throw them away. They deserve a new life

Thank you @Nelson Muntz, but it makes me think that my cpu is too old for everything. I can't find the i586 version of Porteus @f33dm3bits, it shows some x86_64 versions, but distros with _64 won't work on my cpu

I already tried AntiX, but I can't remember if it gave me an error or just freezed, anyway it ddidn't work. I'll try Puppy, but I red that the latest versions needs PAE, I'll try something old, but not too old and let you know

No, I didn't store anything, most because often the install would freeze or it says that the os doesn't "support" an i586 processor and need something newer. Anyway today I restricted my problem with the 32 bit os to the fact that I miss the pae technology in my Pentium. And almost all recent...

Hi, thank you for replying So, I tried ubuntu, lubuntu, archlinux, debian and a couple of other OS, all at 32 bit, and all gave me an error with the kernel, cause I have a i586 cpu or, in the case of debian, freeze on the install screen. My current version of ubuntu come from an iso titled...

Hi, hope this is the right section. As stated in the title: I have an old EBOX: DMP - eBox 3350MX-AP x86 Compact PC with Auto Power On (robot-domestici.it) It features an i586 processor and I have some problems putting it to work: I currently use Ubuntu 10.04 in the system but I would prefer...
