Ok, tried to load SuSe 8.2 on a P 150MHZ with 80MB ram and a 4GB hard disk ... needless to say, WAY OVERKILL for the poor old machine.
Need some sort of distro that can:
A: Includes the Gcc compiler/Python/Perl/etc ... B: Will work on such a weak machine (hmmm a few years ago we thought that kinda power was studly ...)
This machine, is more or less, going to be a "Terminal" on steriods. Needs to have a desktop, and I need to have Open Office on it.
I am open to suggestions? Perhaps Knoppix ?

I need to any recommendations on a -easy- to configure, resource light desktop manager. Need to add and run Open Office, some email programs, and a "terminal" emulation.
I've been using Blackbox with great satisfaction here. http://blackboxwm.sourceforge.net/
