Bonsoir, Richard.
My 486DX33 laptop runs acceptably fast, with 16b RAM and 200b HD (32 of them are used for swap).
X Is quite slow loading. ftp and www aren't too much slow. My only true problem is the Ethernet pocket adaptor (ASant� 10BaseT), which is not recognized. Another problem is (lack of) time.
regards,
Jean

Hi,
That's a similar set-up to my machine, except I have a 486DX. Xwindows is very slow loading for me, although it is an old hard disk which I think is what is slowing it down.
I tried red-hat 6.2 but that refused to install, I tried small linux, which was limited in capabilities.
I don't have a modem on my 486, so I have only used localhost to try out browsing. Again it was slow, but it could be my hard disk.
