I've installed Ubuntu on an old 266mhz/64mb laptop - and it is sloooow.
Obviously, gnome is the main weight on the system, and I'll install
IceWM or XFCE at some point - but this box isn't online, so that's a
little tricky.
Request for Hoary; could an alternative, lightweight WM be included? I
think this thread has shown that there is a need for support for older
systems.
(And tangentially, where is the right place to make feature requests?)
