For this reason, I do not recommend installing these on an old computer or laptop. Xubuntu will work, since XFCE is not resource-hungry. Allow me to introduce Lubuntu to you, to make things even more complicated. Lubuntu uses the LXDE desktop environment, which is extremely lightweight, and is not
resource-hungry at all. Lubuntu is known for working on laptops/computers so old that Windows doesn't even work anymore on them. You can install Lubuntu alongside Windows ME, or completely erase the hard drive and install Lubuntu, allowing Lubuntu to take up the whole drive. I think I've made this email long enough for now.

<div id="yiv1955027227">
<div> Good morning, Tobias. Very good questions
you have. I think I can answer the first
half-way, and I am sure I can answer your second
question. Do you get past the boot screen with
Oneiric and Lucid? In the boot screen (GRUB), to
boot into different operating systems (different
versions of Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu/etc, Windows
or other OS), when inside GRUB, select between
the different operating systems by using the
down and up keys on the keyboard. Then, press
the enter/return key on the keyboard to boot the
selected operating system. Do you know this is a
VGA problem? If so, I have no clue how to solve
this, unless you install drivers for VGA. If you
install VGA driver software, you are installing
this inside the operating system, not GRUB.
Therefore, if this is a GRUB problem, the
problem will still persist with GRUB, even after
installing driver software.<br>
<br>
For your second question, this is a Kubuntu-only
support centre. Ubuntu questions should be asked
in <font color="#3333ff"><u><a rel="nofollow">Ubuntu
Forums</a></u></font> or <font color="#3333ff"><u><a rel="nofollow">Ask Ubuntu</a></u></font>.
I hope this helps!<br>
<br>
In Christ,<br>
Ryan<br>

I guess there must be a way to
see the EFI partition from
inside Windows - sometimes
called the 'system' or
'hidden' partition. Not sure
though, because first thing I
do with a new computer is to
erase Windows completely.<br>
<br>
However, on a EFI-system, when
installing Linux you'll have
to create an EFI partition
(around 100 MB) anyway and put
grub-efi on it. On my system
that is sda2. As far as I can
tell there is no way of
getting rid of this UEFI
rigmarole and revert to the
good, old BIOS.<br>
<br>

Good afternoon, I hope your day is going well. I usually will
reply-all, if that is what you mean. This is because other people on
the list can see my emails and if I say something wrong or
incorrect, they can reply and correct it. I also do it just so
everybody is in the loop on what is going on.<br>
<br>
If Oneiric (and newer) crash after trying to boot, and hardy (and
older) boot fine, then it must be an internal error, or an error
that is in the system when Oneiric/newer boots. It may very well be
the VGA problem as you suggest. I have never experienced this, so I
am able to give you information to the best of my abilities without
being able to see what you are seeing, so if I don't solve the
problem or figure out an answer, I am sorry. Does Persistent boot?
Persistent is the newest stable version of Kubuntu. Thanks!<br>
