Re: older distros of Mint Post by daveinuk » Sun Apr 09, pm Try searching for torrents, they will probably still be abundant on the net. Which is the most demanding on the system resources.

You should try Mate or better yet the lightweight champion Xfce if this is the case. Ducks on the edge sleep with one eye open. No need to make this complicated.

I have it on a computer that originally came with Win98 on it, and it works surprisingly well. But, as it is, they're only coming for your sons. Take a hard look at the PC's specifications before spending wasting a lot of time, especially the amount of RAM it has and cost of possibly adding RAM to it. Comment above is correct that the desktop environment and its resource requirements are more important that the version - at "idle" just booting the operating system Mint Cinnamon for several years back will need close to the same resources as Windows 7 while XFCE with eye candy disabled should "idle" at under mb of RAM.

But just start up a current version browser like FIrefox or Chromium and the browser itself will come close to another megabytes of RAM. Run Dropbox or other constant background services and you're easily at 1gb of RAM just for basic use, even with a "lightweight" desktop environment like XFCE.

But look, if it's truly sentimental and they just want to boot it from time to time to remember past times, maybe they have or you can cheaply get a Win XP install disk - I did a fresh install of XP on on my old once indispensable, now gone Dell and was surprised how fresh it worked.

Updates bogged it down and as I say any current software would be too much, but to light it up as a memorial candle that might do, I still miss the keyboard on the Dell Best wishes.

In my collection of old RAM modules, I found a matched set that meet the published specs of the motherboard, that would bring the computer to mb of RAM.

The RAM module that was installed does not meet published specs, but worked. I found a 1 GB module that matches the specs of the original module, other than size, and I'm going to see if it runs. My niece and her hubby are aware it could damage the motherboard, and they are OK with the testing. Try with "nouveau. Try with "noapic noacpi nosplash irqpoll" instead of "quiet splash". Each new version comes with a new kernel and a newer set of drivers. Most of the time, this means newer versions are compatible with a larger variety of hardware components, but sometimes it might also introduce regressions.

If you are facing hardware issues with the latest version of Linux Mint and you are unable to solve them, you can always try an earlier release. If that one works better for you, you can stick to it, or you can use it to install Linux Mint and then upgrade to the newer release. Release notes. This is Linux Mint Guest Additions To add support for shared folders, drag and drop, proper acceleration and display resolution in Virtualbox, click on the "Devices" menu of Virtualbox and choose "Insert Guest Additions CD Image".

Home directory encryption Benchmarks have demonstrated that, in most cases, home directory encryption is slower than full disk encryption. Touchpad drivers The default touchpad driver in this edition is "libinput" provided by the xserver-xorg-input-libinput package.

To switch to the "synaptics" driver, install it with the command: apt install xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Then log out and log back in. To go back to using "libinput", simply remove the "synaptics" driver: apt remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics Then log out and log back in.

Note: You can also try installing the "evdev" driver provided by the xserver-xorg-input-evdev. Sound and microphone issues If you're facing issues with your microphone or your sound output, please install "pavucontrol".

Other issues Linux Mint 20 is based on Ubuntu
