It’s an old model (Acer One D257) Processor is Intel Atom. Memory is 1GB DDR3 with 320 GB of HDD. I currently Have MX 21 running on it, but I need to reinstall because I forgot the root password. Since I’m reinstalling the OS, I thought I’d ask here for recommendations for an OS that makes the most of this oldie.
Debian with the choice of LXDE as window manager. Debian offers high configurability to remove any heavy component.
That’s a good point, I could jus try debian and remove the unnecessary stuff. I want my daughter to use this laptop so it needs some video codecs and hopefully some educational games.
Some commenters said you need a minimum of 2GB memory to run Debian. What do you make of that?
Don’t want to hurt your daughter. And don’t want to hurt the Linux community by making a girl hate Linux when she’s a child.
Hannah Montana Linux?
