Hello dear Linux Forum,
I would like to make the disclaimer that i'm nto a small boy and no one owes me *. I know most of you have jobs an problems on your own.
I post here to get some additional info - i gather some on my own.
Looking for the best LIGHTEST yet sill user-friendly and media-usabale distro for my specs:
AMD at 2,3ghrz overclocked (NOT a true overclock - no voltage has been upped, only some mhz) - to the point of 2,5GHZ speed equivillent
1,3GB Ram (2x512 and 1x256 - the 512s are not bridged)
Nvidia GeForce FX5900Zt video card
Creative Sound Blaster LIVE! 5.1 with creative 2.1 speakers attatched to my PC (if i can get ieas on amazing equalizer/software here i would love it!)
17" LG FlatronSlim monitor with 1280x1024@75hz optimal resolution.
I want to be able to browse with multiple tabs and watch youtube. To have the basics you know - notepad, cd burner, video program - nothing to fancy. Desktop einviorment, nothing un-stanart.
I want it fast - the number one priority is to have all the STANDART functionallity like flas 10.8 (cuz 11 is buggy on me, but 10 does the job) and to do all the multi-tasking and operations FAST.
I've had here Ubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Mint, Debian, Puppy, LegendaryOS4, Slitaz, MacPup, VectorLinux 7.0 and maybe some more.
I'm most pleased with Puppy Linux 5.6 Slackware based (Slacko) - i use Non-pae even though i have never trie PAE version.
However i was pleasently surprised with SLITAZ - but i cant seem to install it to stay permenantly on my machine (save files??).
Also VectorLInux 7.0 was truly beautiful - but no flash was running there for me so half the youtube was unaccesable. Also was a bit buggy if i remember well.
THis is not emergency. However i'm sure that among so many gifted hackers and programmers someone will have much better ideas than me.
