Hi,
I just installed knoppix 4 on a old IBM T20 laptop ( 128MB ram) with the debian like settings.
Everything I need works fine.
The drawback is the booting time which is 2 times slower than my previous window$ :-(
And also like in window$ i have the feeling that a lot of process are running that i don't need.
is there a way to speed things up a lot?
I also try to boot with another desktop than KDE, like fluxbox, but the 128 MB ram are full and the system is constantly doing paging.
I know that it is possible to have a lighter linux ( like Damn small linux or other), but is there a way to tune knoppix to get something in between ?
regards.
