Quoting Carl William Spitzer IV :

No kidding. Full graphical on pre pentium machines. what level window manager?

Blackbox. X is usable, but image a little fuzzy (insufficient video bandwidth) and refresh slow, 45Hz (insufficient video card processing power). Even with adequate processing power, I still use Blackbox. I just don't care for desktop environments. I've tried several. A panel is just a waste of screen space, IMO.

i always thought pre pemtiums were for fire walls. CWSIV

Depends on how long you have been running Linux. There were no 486s when Linus started, no Pentiums when I started. Jeffrey
