Hi,
i installed on a very old laptop Fedora 19. Firstly i must say that
fedora is my favorite OS especially for very old hardware as it works
everywhere.
so this laptop is for my son to watch cartoons and other children things.
when it runs KDE, cartoons are choppy...
when it runs XFCE, cartoons runs like hell...so fast, so well
when it installed Gnome (to test gnome 2 for example), well... it
doesn't allow me to use the gnome shell at all... system display white
screen and i must to log off and to chose another desktop
so how can i do to make KDE or gnome running movies like hell, like
under XFCE desktop ?
thx.
A.
XFCE is designed to be lightweight and use less system resources. KDE
and Gnome would need more system resources to run, and since the old
laptop may have limited system resources, you experience the negative
impacts. So for an old laptop with limited resources, XFCE is the best
choice.
They all work fine on a system with ample resources.
if i use KDE in failover mode, it runs like hell too :D
i know this is an old laptop, but for my 3 years old son, it's enough to
watch cartoons before sleeping :D
i just need to find a player that can shutdown the computer once movie
is ended...
