What a light Linux Polish language for Dell Latitude D630


Hello.
I have a dell latitude D630 notebook, which Linux distributions should I install so that the latest versions of firefox and vivaldi web browsers work? For quick and easy operation? So as not to get stuck? Best Polish language distribution
Thanks.

Antix https://antixlinux.com/download/

To change change to Polish. In root rox terminal < I would use the full iso and make plop cd to boot usb if not cable of usb boot >

Code:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
Find polish and tic that box. Make that the default before closing.
We have some Polish users on our forum.

Got a link that gives a review on your laptop so members can see the specs?

Slitaz Linux stable < not cooking > is pretty popular on older gear in the EU also I think.

Puppy Linux also. I am mentioning Window manager isos because I am not hip on your specs of laptop.
So guessing on the conservative side.

AntiX would be first choice, MX Linux worth looking at too; (SliTaz &/or TinyCore very lightweight); depends on amount of ram, but I'd suggest giving at least 2GB swap partition.

There are others too, but stick with the lightweight distros is my advice.

Try Sparky. It's actually produced in Poland:

The installer is available with Xfce and LXQt. For system requirements, see here:
