I have no idea why you say that. I have a thinkpad 760 with 24 MB ram and it runs X just fine.

Use something lighter, like windowmaker or vtwm if you are used to twm. Description: Virtual Tab Window Manager This window manager is an extension to twm that provides several virtual screens. It is therefore of good use with monitors that are smaller than 19". Wouter -- Linux daria 2.2.14 #1 Wed Jan 5 14:00:40 CET 2000 i586 unknown 10:24am up 1:33, 4 users, load average: 0.02, 0.07, 0.03
