bodhizazenhello pigna_colada19:14
pigna_coladahi bodhi!19:14
pigna_coladabodhi which is your fav distro?19:14
bodhizazenI mainly run Fedora these days19:16
bodhizazenor kubuntu19:16
pigna_coladacan kubuntu be installed on older pc's?19:16
pigna_coladais it lighter than normal ubuntu or xubuntu?19:17
bodhizazenkubuntu runs fine on my "older" hardware19:19
bodhizazenfor really old hardware, use something such as puppy19:19
pigna_coladai dont know if it must considered really old...19:19
pigna_coladaits a laptop with a p4 2.0 ghz19:19
pigna_coladai have tried to run the last ubuntu on it but it doesnt work19:19
bodhizazenhttp://www.puppylinux.com/19:20
bodhizazencould be any number of problems19:20
bodhizazenhttp://www.slitaz.org/en/19:20
bodhizazenOf the 'buntus, lubuntu is lightest, I would use that19:21
pigna_coladayes holstein the other day suggested me lubuntu19:22
pigna_coladaand i have installed it, but i dont like it much :(19:22
pigna_coladaits too light:(19:22
bodhizazenhttp://www.slax.org/19:22
bodhizazenOK, well, IMO, KDE is lighter then it used to be19:22
bodhizazenIMO kde works better then Unity/gnome on old hardware19:22
bodhizazenxubuntu is another option19:22
pigna_coladai could install ubuntu but it was running very slow and the dekstop had strange effects and blocks19:23
pigna_coladaholstein told me because of the 3d supportg19:23
bodhizazenhttp://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/desktop-environments-ram-use/19:23
pigna_coladayes, I was looking at xubuntu and it seems "something more" than lubuntu19:23
bodhizazenyea19:23
bodhizazenbodhi is a great option- http://www.bodhilinux.com/19:24
pigna_coladaalso puppylinux doesnt seem so bad19:25
pigna_coladabut to have more compatibility and sharing with ubuntu itself i think i have to try xubuntu19:26
bodhizazenx or kubuntu , you will do well with either19:26
pigna_coladakubuntu has more potential than xu?19:27
bodhizazenkubuntu has a little more eye candy, works well19:29
bodhizazenxubuntu has an old school feel19:29
bodhizazengnome / unity have high requirements of your video card (3d), the 2d stuff (fall back) is slow19:31
duanedesignlubuntu is a nother light distro that is really nice20:02
duanedesignoops you alll already discussed lubuntu :)20:02
duanedesignthen i would go with bodhi's suggestion xubuntu20:02
pigna_coladayes I am downloading xubuntu :)20:23
pigna_coladaI have formatted the old lubuntu partitions20:23
pigna_coladaand i am in a few moments proceeding in installing xu20:23
pigna_coladahoping will be the final choice20:23
pigna_coladaI hope the xubuntu install is similar to ubuntu/xubuntu20:23
pigna_coladaI hope the xubuntu install is similar to ubuntu/Lubuntu20:23
