Hi,

I carry a knoppix cd around to show to all my friends - I really think is fantastic, my sysadmin almost had a heart attack when he thougt I had installed Linux on my machine!

however, I have an old dell laptop (233 mmx, 64mb of ram) and it is just unusable. I know about having a swap file, but I thought that it would be better to use a less resource consuming GUI. Problem is, I don't have the knowledge to tweak knoppix into this... My reasoning is: if a Zaurus runs smoothly Qtopia, my laptop should do too... Am I wrong? Of course, having a knoppix using Qtopia would be ideal for older systems if you still want to have a GUI...
