I'm looking for a minimal Linux distribution that will boot with X (1024X768 or 800X600) and run Netscape only. I'm trying to build an ultra simple web-client that can simply boot from CD-ROM (or a really small hard drive or flash-disk). Any suggestions? TIA, Zack (Email to zhamm at nc.rr.com)

- 1. A little help with getting X Started??
OK, installed RH 8 on an AMD System, couldn't probe for a monitor, so i just selected a generic monitor at 800x600 @ 60hertz. When it comes time to boot up, i don't geta graph login, just the usual text login, i login as root, type starx and all i get is an error about monitor found, but it hasnt got any usable configurations, OR it just comes up with a screen with some gibberish. Anyone got any ideas? Cheers Ev I am currently using a generic Geforce 4 and a Digital 17" monitor (Sony Trinitron tube) - 2. WindowMaker with gnome 2.2 panel or xfce4 panel
Hello, I plan to install windowmaker but I need a panel. I wonder which is better: gnome 2.2 or xfce4. If I want to use gnome panel, wil I need to install all the gnome library and dependencies? There are a lot less for the xfce4 panel. Thanks Bye

2.Best standard distribution for minimal setup?
Which of the standard distributions: RedHat, Debian, FreeBSD etc. is best suited for installation on a PC with little diskspace? I hope get a webbrowser (preferably Mozilla) (+ whatever is needed) up and running on a machine with: - 512 MB persitent memory (a CF card) - 64 MB standard memory - 266 MHz Pentium II compatible CPU using a standard distribution. It is possible to upgrade the CF card to 1 GB and the standard memory to 128 MB, if needed. Any recommendations? Any hints? (size of swap space, ...) -- Christian
3.distribution that will allow for a minimal install
Is there an f*ing linux distro that will let me install without all the extra crap? I tried SUSE and then Fedora and during the install I chose to install NOTHING extra, I mean I unchecked pretty much everything but VIM and a few other necessary things. Then it says it is resolving dependencies and only gives me the option to install. After it installs I end up with all this crap I did not want like postfix and ldap and everything but the kitchen sink. This is so annoying, I thought linux was supposed to be flexible and configurable and give the tech more control. It reminds me too much like windows now. Does anyone know of a distribution that will allow me to NOT install all the extra packages? Thanks.
