Which Linux distro is good for a slow pc that can't

>>59695350
Ubuntu GNOME
Fedora 25
literally any distro desu

>>59695350
mint

Arch is superior

>>59695350
computer spec ?

>>59695360
>>59695426
>Gnome and Cinnamon, or as they are commonly referred to "the most memory-intense desktop environments in the whole Linux ecosystem"
>>59695350
all of them. Debian netinstall lets you install a minimal system and choose a desktop environment as well. Use Xfce, Lxde or Mate, don't use Gnome, Cinnamon or KDE.
If someone tells you that Debian packages are outdated, update your repos to testing or unstable.

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU M 350 @ 2.27GHz
2261.000 MHz
3072 KB

Memory total: 1864 MiB
300 GB harddrive

>>59695721
>CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU M 350 @ 2.27GHz

anything with the following DEs/WMs available should do:
LXDE
LXQT
OpenBox WM
Awesome WM.
I'd try BunsenLabs since it's literally openbox preconfigured on debian

>>59695721
Put windows 7 lite on it

>>59695857
aye you got a link for it? I've been meaning to get linux off my Latitude 2120

>>59695350
KDE neon

>>59695721
Those specs are fine for Linux, any distro will do.

>>59695350
Where can I download this album? :)

>>59695897

correct answer

>>59695839
I would start with Linux Mint. If that runs too slow for you then try the Xfce edition. Also, when selecting software, try to choose things from the "minimalist" sections on this page: https://wiki.installgentoo.com/index.php/List_of_recommended_GNU/Linux_software

First of, NICE ALBUM
second, try xubuntu or windows 7 lite, they both work on old machines and don't fuck around a lot.

Anything just use a light DE like XFCE or openbox

>>59697485
This. Most popular distros offer a flavor with a lighter DE

If you want something even more stripped down, do an arch install or an ubuntu server install and build up.

If you want something really slim, give Alpine Linux a try. Sometimes getting X working on it can be a little janky though.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Stop tripfagging. You're not on reddit.

>>59697782
tripfagging while cancerous is still 4chan culture like anime and greentexting. It is a fact that tripfags are usually just spouting memes/dumb shit 24/7.

>>59697782 Your mother is a tripfag!

Kolibri
Slitaz
Tinycore
Alpine
Void
Arch
Gento
Ubanto minimal
Guix
Debian

>i3 CPU M 350 @ 2.27GHz // 2GBRAM
too old for default DEs on current normie distros?
is this correct
WTF linux community

my celeron dual 1.6GHz // 2 gb RAM can run normindows 7 just fine

i tried linux 10years ago but being a semi-power user on windows, basically i just know my way around most configuration GUIs, just knowing nameofthing.msc to call via command instead of clicking through 5 nested GUIs at the control panel

in linux i found myself having to look up, for every god damn change, tutorials and cheat sheets that when not matching exactly what i needed, i ended up reading an entire manpage anyway, and 20 minutes later problem solved...
until next month you need it again but slightly different, and you cant just have a gui to check one different option this time, you're gonna have to read the manpage again for 20 minutes

has this changed today? which distro is or enviroment is the most configurable with GUIs? you know for everyday lil things like sharing folders with other machines, formatting an hdd, file permissions..

>>59697885
>4chan culture
huh, did you know that sucking feminine penis is also a 4chan culture now?
did you masturbate to shemale porn on /b/ today already, when was the last time you found a guy on craigslist to suck anon?

(when i dont find at 4shared, filediva or alluc.cc)

good ol Searx or ixquick:
"seaside" "beach" "album" "download"

sometimes you find it uploaded by random blogs on sites like
http://www46.zippyshare.com/v/Hx5XH7D0/file.html
found on blog http://www.listentothis.info/2015/08/seaside-lovers-memories-in-beach-house.html

just use jdownloader, or have a firefox profile with the about:config setting:
dom.popup_allowed_events
with only:
submit
(or with nothing), to completely kill popups


>>59699593
nice flac, but what private tracker is that?

Arch is the fastest, least memory-intensive.
If you don't like arch, however, Lubuntu is a good choice if your PC is really old. (I'm running Lubuntu ppc on an old Powerbook G4)
If your computer is old but not too shitty then xubuntu, Ubuntu mate, or solus are good.
If you can handle it though, then just go with arch with either xfce, mate or budgie and you'll be good

>>59695350
I use mint mate.

>>59697237
the album was the only reason i opened this thread. so relaxing

Debian or Arch with Xfce
