I have successfully installed Lubuntu 12.04 on a 384-megabyte RAM machine using the alternate install. Lubuntu 11.10 installed (using the alternate install) on a 256 megabyte RAM machine, and performed fine in use. I suspect the 12.04 level won't run on 256 megabytes of RAM. <BR>

>From the standpoint of a person doing MIDI music/audio work on Linux, ever since the 3.0.x kernel, things have changed for the worse in very noticeable ways, to where it is now absolutely essential to configure real-time priority level, and memory locking for software synthesizers to work acceptably. <BR>

In fact, the poor performance of the main Ubuntu variant (since 11.10) is the reason I am primarily using Lubuntu today. But even on Lubuntu, I have to put a configuration file for my user-ID in the "/etc/security/limits.d" directory. <BR>

With that change, I can still run qsynth successfully, even on a 450 megahertz (384 meg. RAM) machine. <BR>

You can change it. I think 512MB is enough :)
