With the replies so far, I guess you now know that X will run on your machine. Knoppix might have troubles, though, because its autoconfiguration may be designed for a larger machine (it reserves a 10 megabyte RAMdisk, for example, and thst's a *lot* of your RAM, and may no longer have space for X. As for minimal X, I once (ten or fifteen years ago) used an X terminal with only 8 meg of RAM. It worked fine, though all my applications and even the window manager had to run on another machine! May I recommend abiword? It will also generate word files, and it's a good deal smaller than OpenOffice. -- hendrik > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
