A KDE user might like LXDE better, so maybe try that too.

Don't know that one, will have a google. Mint version Gloria has three
choices of desktop system, Ubuntu, Kubuntu or XFCE. The last was the
smallest so I am trying that and learning something new as well.

So far I quite like XFCE.

Thanks

Neil

I'm running XFCE on my viglen (500Mhz geode/256Meg ram) and its proving a bit slow - its taken me nearly an hour just to tell it to do the updates and install LXDE which I'm going to try next! I must confess that I'm amazed how slow things have got - its considerably slower that when I first ran xfce on a 386 with 16Meg of ram (suse 5.1 ~1997?)
