The minimal hardware requirements for Ubuntu 10.10 are at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
This is a bit more than the system you have described, so you might want
to consider using Xubuntu, which uses the lighter-weight Xfce desktop
environment instead of the
Ok, got it. My father's computer was able to handle at acceptable speed
previous versions of ubuntu, now it's impossible as ubuntu is too heavy.
Will switch my father's computer to another distro. Will try
Xubuntu/Lunbuntu though.
You can close that report.

Could not test it. Pulseaudio/totem bug with soundblaster live card:
pulseaudio eats 50% of CPU (Duron 700MHz). Additionnally I had to remove
xapian indexing (python apt thingy) stuff as it eats CPU and fairly too
much *resident* memory (100 MB for a 400MB system).
Did some tests with

I'll test next week-end, as I will have physical access to his computer.
I'll see if de-interlacing is fast enough for his CPU with that new
code.

I don't think my father will be able to burn an iso image, but I'll try.
Worst case scenario: we'll see next year. Better case scenario, gstreamer good

There has been some work done on deinterlacing in the newly released
GStreamer Good Plug-ins 0.10.26. From the release notes:
Features of this release

The other option for your father to watch movies of his holidays on his
small-old system is to stick with Ubuntu 10.04, which is a Long Term
Support (LTS) release and has a version of Totem which does not do
deinterlacing.
Why does he want/need to run the latest Ubuntu 10.10 on such an old
Another update - more progress has been made:

All your father has to do to watch movies of his holidays is select
Preferences from Totem's Edit menu, then select the Display tab and then
tick Disable deinterlacing of interlaced videos.
Then, small-old systems (like my father's computer) won't be able to
read out of the box interlaced movies (movies of his holidays) because
the CPU requirements for deinterlacing is too high for his system.
Note: open source GPU accelerated video postprocessing rules out VDPAU
since it's a
If deinterlacing were to be turned off by default a lot of users would
experience poor video playback out of the box and it is unlikely that
they would know what to do to fix it.
This high CPU use will be solved in time as support for GPU accelerated
