I've just installed xubuntu on a laptop and it seems really funky, like ubuntu but with xfce, although the laptop ran gnome fine, so i'm not sure how resource hungry xfce has become.... might be worth a try though if you like ubuntu.

Hi

I am after some advice. I haven't posed a message to the list as I was waiting for a newer laptop.

I now have a Toshiba Satellite 4030CDT with 128MB of RAM, it is a Pentium Celeron 300Mhz.

What is the best way to go with Linux. I don't want to use DSL as I would like something a little higher spec. I like Ubuntu but I think it will run a little slow on this machine.

I would like to dual boot it with Windows 2000 which is already installed so what do I need to do.

Simon
