Good morning Kurt,

KW>What I meant was that you can tailor what parts of Linux you run to
KW>tailor it to your specific hardware requirements. Most Linux distros
KW>nowadays ship with a complete window manager with lots of tools, eye
KW>candy, and apps.

KW>Not much hard drive space? hand-pick the applications you load at
KW>install time.

OK. but how do I know at installation time which applications are big?

KW>Have a low-end graphics card? Pick a different Window manager with
KW>lower hardware requirements or forego the window manager completely
KW>and run in text-mode.

Same here, how do I know which manager is a resource hog?

Have a nice day,

Holger
