I'm looking for a decent distro to put onto an older laptop (Acer TravelMate 512DX), with only a 4GB drive. The target system will be used for software development, so will need a development environment. It should also have a graphical interface, but doesn't strictly need KDE or Gnome (though the base files might be needed for some of the development tools - KDevelop for instance). The disto should be pretty lean, but still robust enough to handle the above tasks.
Thus far, we've tried Suse 9.2, VidaLinux (install failed), and Ubuntu (Live CD - networking problems with it). We'll keep trying things over the weekend, but maybe someone will have suggestions for another disto well suited for this laptop? (NOTE: This is NOT a call for a distro war.. <grins>) Thanks for any ideas.
