O.P. Best Linux distro for a low end machine
A friend gave me an old laptop of his, and I wanna throw Linux on it, but the problem is, it's pretty low end. 300mhz proc, 196mb RAM, 5gb HD. It originally had Win 2k on it. I'm looking for something that will run smoothly on it. I've got Xubuntu on it right now, but it's not pleasing me so far. I tried a Knoppix livecd on it, and it ran pretty smooth, but people tell me to not use it installed because of a lack of updates or security upgrades and such. I was suggested Kanotix for this, because of it's similarity to Knoppix, but I have yet to try because of lack of time. Any words of wisdom?
