Slackware On A Dinosaur Of A Computer

**cheetahman** · 11-03-2005

It has flux box and the hardrive is only 1GB and is Running Slackware 10.2

The size of the hard drive is inconsequential.
Are you using a swapfile?

I for one think he's talking plain gibberish, budman7. He claims also to have Slack 10.2 + fluxbox running on a 24 MB of RAM. And when it comes to his type of posts, I don't think he can pull it off with his present knowledge. I asked him to post he screenshot, up till now I didn't see any.

Yes 1GB hardrive 90Mhz and 32Mb of ram with fluxbox and plays xmms with cds

Slackware 10.2 and IceWM make a great combination. Try that.

Cheetahman, you can use the GIMP for a screenshot. I think ImageMagick also (but never used it). I (and I think others also) would like to see the following info on the screenshot:
- CPU info
- RAM info
- of course your working window manager

You can get the first by typing cat /proc/cpuinfo in a terminal, the second by typing free -m, which will display your memory details (usage, amount, swap).

And as for your RAM, now you're using 32 MB, before you said 24 MB RAM

?
