I'm new to the Slitaz distro, but from what I have seen I'm very impressed. I loaded Slitaz almost seemlessly to my Dell latitude CPX H PIII 500 mhz laptop with 256MB ram. The best thing was I setup this laptop for my newphew with ubuntu 8.10 a year ago since he is incapable of using windows without virusing the heck out of it in a day or 2. The unit worked just ok for a while,, pretty slow with the speed and amount of RAM in hardy... but it was usuable.

I found Slitaz flies on this same Machine, The issue was the 40Gb hard drive failed, and all I has for a spare was a 1.3gb hard drive I pulled out of a pentium 100mhz texas instruments laptop a few years back,, slitaz installed with room to spare! It took a while to find a pcmcia wireless card to work partly because of my inexperience with Slitaz but that was not too difficult a task.. The biggest drawback right now is the resolution, its stuck at 800x600. This machine can do 1024x768 which makes using a web browser doable. The laptop has an ATI M1 8MB graphics card. I have tried everything I know of. I have modified the xorg.conf (which usually leads to X not working) I have used tazx to load the ATI, Vesa, Intel, drivers.... those do virtually nothing. I loaded ATI catalyst,, still nothing.. I know its an ancient card, but Crunch bang boots right up to 1024 X 768. This is my only drawback right now, and I get a huge kick out of re-using "antiquated hardware". Can someone help?
