one of my laptops is an old ibm thinkpad 340 - 486, 25mhz, 8mb ram, 100mb hd. now this works fine for me. i don't see why you should have any problems with 20mb ram. at 20mb even x should work - which is something i would not want to try on my 8mb machine, especially not with a 2.2 kernel (probably more or less fine under 2.0). heby -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Christoph Hebeisen [EMAIL PROTECTED] 4023 Hamilton Hall SFU Burnaby, BC V5A 1S6 Canada (+1 604) 3200161 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
