If there is a problem you don't understand you need to tell us exactly what happens. That way we might be able to help.
Try Antix:
http://antix.mepis.org/index.php?title=Main_Page- It should run on most computers, ranging from 64MB old PII 266 systems with pre-configured 128MB swap to the latest powerful boxes. 128MB RAM is recommended minimum for antiX. The installer needs minimum 2.2GB hard disk size. antiX can also be used as a fast-booting rescue cd. A special XFCE edition made in collaboration with the MEPIS Community called MX-14 "Symbiosis" is also available.
Antix has "Cenni" which makes wifi connection easier.
It might be time to get a more modern laptop?0 -
Thanks
Fortunately I have others computers but I would like to give this one to my young son with a distro with a minimum of "esthetic" I will try antix and elive.
What information do you need ?
thank you0 -
I would suggest either Mint Linux (Xfce version) or Emmabuntus which is a version Ubuntu produced by the organisation Emmaus, for installation in older PC's. (I'm sure that you know the name Emmaus and their good works in the world-wide community. We have have an Emmaus dépôt-vente in our area.).
Good luck with your computer!
