Ximian GNOME and "Low-End" Systems

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Thursday March 21, 2002 @08:58AM from the user-mode dept.

Gremeth writes: "This article over at LinuxandMain points out the increase in hardware requirements for many Linux applications, and gives us a good look at GNOME for low-end boxes. Powell details his journey throug the Ximian GNOME experience, starting with the download and ending in some configuration issues. A good read for those of us who have older systems."
