[Lubuntu-desktop] information on lubuntu.net

2010-12-09 Thread Aleksandar Ciric

Hello,
Since this can be considered a minimalist distro, I think that there 
should be information about system requirements somewhere on website. 
There is only as low as PII with 128MB ram. Great, but I have CF to 
IDE with 1GB CF card, so I dont know if I can install it before I try. I 
have found alternate install on other website, but I think that it would 
be great to have it on main site as well, since truly, with 128MB, 
liveCD just doesn't perform well.


Best Regards,
Aleksandar Ciric

Hi Aleksandar,

thank you for your suggestion. As you said correctly the info is kind
of spread on different websites. So, if you would like to help, please
feel free to put together this information, details and links and send
it to me to put up on the lubuntu site. We are always looking for
people who would like to get involved in all different kinds of tasks
including documentation.

Besides the lubuntu website, actually it is rather the wiki that will
hold more info and can be updated by everyone much easier.

All the best,

Mario

Hi,

LiveCD's by their very nature are slow (the seek time on a cd compared to a
hard drive is like trying to race snails).

If you follow the documentation at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu#System%20requirements for the various
options and why more RAM is required for certain scenarios than lubuntu
needs to actually run.

Please let me know if there is information that you would like adding to
that area and I will get it done as soon as I get a chance.

There is an even more minimal version of lubuntu going to get written up on
that area in the next couple of days.

Regards,

Phill.
