Ubuntu on ICE

[Mike Drabik]

Ubunutu on ICEWM!?  That would be magnificent!!

I have an old 380 MHZ generic Laptop with 256 MB RAM
and I have had both Warty and Hoary installed on it.
The former ran slow and the latter caused video
display issues (which were resolved) but then latency
issues, associated with Gnome, developed and the
longer Hoary ran the worse it got (e.g.: 5 seconds
delays after a mouse click). 

I had to wipe its harddrive and try an entirely
different distro (which shall remain nameless) that
doesn't have nearly the kind of quality and ease of
use as Ubuntu has.

I sure would welcome an ICEWM Ubuntu!
