Zenwalk 2.8, a Review Contributed by Simon Gerber in Reviews on 2006-08-11 00:00:00 Discuss! Name: E-mail: Title: BBCode: Comment: [quote]I'm a linux newbie here, and after reading some interesting articles online, I decided to take an old laptop that was just lying around (PIII, 600MHz, 128MB, 40GB) and set up Zenwalk 3 with XP dual boot last night. Installation was OUTSTANDING!!! For the past five days or so, I've been downloading distro after distro, and this was my fifth distro installation (others being SUSE 10.1, Xubuntu, Knoppix and Vector). I had the least number of problems or freezes here. The OS boots up with blazing speed on my clunker, graphics card recognized and configured perfectly, and it is the first Linux installation that I'm extremely happy with. I still haven't gotten my Wireless card to work (OS doesn't even see eth0 or wlan0 device), but then, I couldn't get it to work on any other flavour either. So for now, I boot into XP to go online. Hopefully, I will be able to fix that on Zenwalk this weekend. This was a very nice article, and partly convinced me to try out Zenwalk, although i was already getting comfortable with SUSE. Well worth the trouble, my laptop is blazing away now =) I'm a happy newbie convert!
