Thanks cjll3, well disk space is not an issue, I have gotten rid of windows completeley from my laptop, so I now have an empty 6GB hard Drive to play around with Linux on
Does KDE take up more system resources than GNOME?
Im only asking because this laptop is fairly old....
266mhz PII
128MB Ram (Not sure if its EDO or 66mhz SDRAM)
6GB UDMA 2 hard drive
Im also struggling getting my network adapter setup.
My laptop used to acces the Internet via ICS from my primary computer running Win2k, Ive never had a problem with this before but I cant get it to work now (Does Linux even support Windows Based ICS??)
I am also completley stumped on how to browse shared folders on my primary computer (This is all setup correctly At the windows end, but I am clueless on how to setup the linux bit)
And my sound card will not detect, The autodetect claims there is no sound card and due to the age of the laptop I am 100% certain there is no Linux driver for my particular soundcard on the companys support page. Do I have any alternatives here?? or do I just make do with no sound?? (Not a big problem since I dont actually need the sound on this machine)
Oh and this may be a simple one but How do you turn off the damn screensaver lol??
