please check your configuration well before changing the distribution
- most often the config is the problem rather than the distro - may be
you have unnecessary servers running....choice of applications also
matter - gnome/kde apps tend to be bloated - e.g. xterm is much better
and faster than gnome-terminal sans the backgrounds - maybe aterm if
you really insist on the backgrounds...changing distros may not really
help...

it moves on...

I used Slackware 9.1 earlier on my 500 MHz, 128 MB RAM
Celeron (Mendacino) R&D system. Now using Knoppix 3.6
installed to hard disk with Fluxbox.
