If you want a desktop of any kind, but don't use the more advanced stuff, try xfce. It should save some memory. If you're really only running openoffice, then there may no need for a desktop at all. If you want better advice on what you could do to free some memory, you should probably post a list of programs that are running (try 'ps ax' or something like that). As far as the kernel concerns: That's easier for you to try than for us. Just remove things until it breaks :-) Koen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
