20:11.26savingmemi installed lucid on a Pentium III laptop with 256 MB RAM, everything works ok. i am not using gnome but the very memory friendly icewm and have disabled all unneeded services. is there any other system configuration thing that i can do to save RAM? No kernel compilation, please.
20:16.36DiscordianUKTurn off unneeded service
20:16.38DiscordianUKs
20:16.58DiscordianUKlike the mail daemon if you don't use that
20:17.05DiscordianUKlikewise httpd
20:23.13savingmemall of them services are turned off. no web server installed. my computer is a PIII laptop
20:24.49DiscordianUKThen no idea
20:25.12DiscordianUK255Mb ram is marginal for a usuable modern linux
20:26.18savingmemthings get rather slow when watching films or if i open more than 3 apps
20:26.51DiscordianUKyes
20:26.58DiscordianUKthey will
20:27.20DiscordianUKI originally had 256Mb in this laptop
20:27.32DiscordianUKand it was very slow
20:28.01DiscordianUKi updated it to 1.25Gb which makes it usuable
