Thank you, Ryan. It's a several year old Compaq Presario M2000 (1/2 G Mem), on which I've got Ubuntu (12.04) loaded - though I'm unable to get the WIFI working). Ubuntu ver. 13.04 hangs when I try to load it. I'm just attracted to BSD on principle, if, of course, there's a version small enough to work on this, and would otherwise be compatible. (Much frustration with Ubuntu -- largely over the WIFI -- though I give it, along with Linux Mint, great credit for at least loading on this.)

X in BSD is, IMO (after 10 years of use) bloated. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota tclug-list at mn-linux.org http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
