whats a good version of linux
for hp vectra vl400 dt pen3 500mbram with old monitor
|
I've had various versions installed on a P3 with 320M of RAM. I think anything in the top ten on the "hit list" at distrowatch should be fine.
|
I think some old version ubuntu like 5.10 is good choice

Old is bad, no updates available, no securtiy fixes available, definitely use a current version of Linux.
if performance is an issue switch to a lightweight desktop or window manager.. XFCE, fuxbox, or something along those lines I found Debian to perform fairly well on PIII hardware. XFCE the Other Desktop |
check out anti-X
Anti-X is by far and away the best distro for older hardware. You can get versions with XFCE, fluxbox or a light version of KDE
