I have a Linux Mint running on a intel atom CPU with 256mb ram and no graphics card and it kinda works.
You're viewing a single thread.
I have an atom Asus transformer with 2gb of ram that can run but not much else. Any good 32 bit distros I can look into? Realistically I think much of the mainstream web browsers are becoming too heavy also, which is what I would primarily use and might be more of my problem.
omg I have one of those too! it doesn't get much use because it's.. well you have one
I know! It'd be great if it were a better sized SSD (not SD soldered) and more memory. The processor is sufficient so it feels like a waste.
That said, I did use it in college so I did get use out of it.
Antix offers a 32bit build and only uses about 100mbs of ram(and systemd free as well it uses sysvinit and runit uses window managers like icewm jwm instead of regular desktope nvironments )
I've got 33bit Mint on an Aspire One, runs OK
Re the web browsers I think you're right. You may get away with a more lightweight browser like SeaMonkey or Falkon, maybe like 1 tab of Chromium lol
Distros I'd try on that would be Linux Mint Debian Edition, Debian w/ lightweight DE like LXDE or Xfce, or Arch Linux 32 if you really want to make it minimalist. Gentoo if you're very adventurous but with my EEE PC I found compile times took up to days.
