<0> cant find it but its ok.... wanted to find the best pic of the boys and the best of the sea...
<1> have a look at the online gallery i created
<0> i need to acces 2004
<0> +s
<1> oh
<2> hello all
<0> i love the gallery though!! Cant wait to have all the years up :D
<0> hiya =)
<2> i have a ?
<2> i have ubuntu (with x windows) running on a 500mhz / 358 mb ram pc...and it doesnt run all that fast...do i need to set up a swap?
<3> probably not going to make it much faster
<2> well what can i do to make it run faster?
<2> google hasnt been much help
<1> when i get tim ei'll add the other years
<4> depends on what you mean by faster...
<1> add more ram
<1> get a better video card
<1> get a faster hdd
<0> thats great :D
<1> or just get a decent pc
<2> welll my XMMS will lag if i run toom much stuff
<0> Thanks babe XXX
<2> anyweb: your solution to everything is get better hard ware?
<4> one thing you can do is upgrade the ram for sure
<2> im not looking for lightning...just quickness
<1> no its not my solution
<4> that way you don't swap as much
<1> but run fluxbox or something that doesnt eat so much bandwidth
<2> 384 mbs isnt alot for linux?
<1> or juse use the cli
<1> a 500mhz pc is slow in todays world
<4> depends on the application
<2> right
<5> ElChupey, 384MB is not much on my systems
<4> some people think 1gb is not enough for linux
<2> whoa
<1> i have 512mb ram on this laptop
<5> if ya give it that much memory it will use it
<6> hehe i run linux on a 333Mhz machine
<6> you can run linux on anything
<2> so ...i prolly have what im going to get is what your saying...unless i use fluxbox
<6> you cannot run X on anything though
<5> i have linux on my ipod
<2> my 233 w/ dsl is faster then my 500mhz w/ ubuntu
<1> dsl=dam small linux
<2> cuz dsl uses fluxbox?
<2> yah
<1> its desinged to run better on old ****
<2> dam small ...
<1> ubuntu isnt designed to run good on old ****
<1> 500mhz=old ****
<1> sorry.
<2> lol
<2> i have to retire my baby
<6> NOOO
<6> :(
<6> nothing is too old for linux
<5> i retired my 500Mhz box a year ago
<2> this pc has been up since 98 every day
<1> look, my two year OLD gaming machine, (bought in 2003 or so) is a Pentium 4 3.0ghz
<5> but i will use it as router
<5> ;-p
<1> and that is starting to look old with todays hardware
<1> so a 500mhz box is like, sooooooooooooooooooooo yesterday
<1> use it as a firewall
<2> its a conspiracy you know
<1> or try fluxbox or something 'lite'
<2> is that hard to do? take off x and put flux on ?
<1> not hard at all
<2> will i lose some apps?
<6> ElChupey: you leave X on
<2> ?
<6> because flux needs it ;)

<1> read that it's OLD like your cpu
<1> but you'll get the idea
<7> even tho this isnt my main cpy
<7> cpu*
<2> ok anyweb...enough w/ the insulting my dated hard ware =(
<2> its gonna cry
<1> i'm not insulting it, dont get me wrong, i'm just trying to make you understand not to expect great things from modern linux distros on old hardware. sorry
<0> :(
<2> right
<2> im not insulted..just poor
<0> arent we all
<6> anyweb: you are talking desktop wise
<6> linux can do more things than just desktop
<1> znx yes
<4> i don't like to think of myself as poor, just married! :P
<1> i know that
<1> but he wants X to work nicely
<6> so the old hw isnt for the scrap .. not just yet ;P
<5> thanks lia
<5> i already take them daily though
<5> ahh to hell qith it
<0> haha
<5> what was it ?
<0> E
<5> i hope not asprin.. MAOI's
<5> ohh noes
<5> i cant take E's
<2> what if i want to run apache?
<2> would i have to dedicate this machine for web serving?
<4> like everything else, that depends on certain things
<7> which machine
<4> depends on expected traffic and so on
<2> 500 mhz
<1> should be fine
<1> i ran linux-noob.com on a p3 733mhz for two years no probs
<1> laptop
<2> traffic?
<2> dedicated?
<1> 1 or two hits yeah
<7> yeah
<7> 500mhz is ****ty for windows but great for linux
<2> i get the same speed. less problems
<7> i have a 650mhz box running my phone system and im sure that will get greater volume of traffic
<2> fair enough
<1> 272586 hits in 2005
<8> you can buy a 1ghz machine pretty cheap
<2> wow
<1> low traffic
<2> not cheap enough my friend
<7> P38 he says he is poor
<2> im a student
<7> even tho, im poor and i have better systems than he does
<2> i have tuition to pay,,,etc
<1> what country do you live in
<2> but enough about me
<2> USA
<1> i have an amd computer here which is waiting a good home
<1> pay the shipping and its yours
<2> how much?
<7> hahahahahahaha
<2> oh yah?
<7> dont even think about it ElChupey he lives in sweden
