New distro for older harware !

#1 Post by Caraibes »

Hi folks,

I just found this one out :
http://www.stibs.cc/stx/index.html
I am now downloading the iso to see what it's like, because it's always interesting to analyse other distros for older hardware...

Maybe it can compare with Puppy ( ??!!??) or Vector, because one can install it to the hdd.

Well, I tried it... Needs a lot of work, But I can only encourage the work of that young german guy. He deserves to improve his distro...

Anyone feel like making a dotpup of EDE (Equinox Desktop Environment)?
