    Brian,

    I still have many 32-bit systems. Also many 16-bit and a few 8-bit. The 32-bit P-III’s and Pentium-M are really good on antiX. For my Pentium 4’s, in addition to antiX, I sometimes use MX and MX-Fluxbox or Q4OS or plain Debian. I cut my teeth with Vector/Slackware but I much prefer the antiX/MX/Debian family.

    It’s a shame you don’t have any 32-bit any more. It’s a fun platform.

    Hello Seaken64, how are you?

    I do not know and have never tested these operating systems that you mentioned “MX and MX-Fluxbox or Q4OS or plain Debian”, would you have the memory consumption values ​​for each of them?

    I managed to find Q4OS and MX Linux:

    http://q4os.org/downloads1.html

    “You can download either a lightweight efficient Trinity desktop, or more advanced Plasma desktop edition. Live media allow users to get a quick Q4OS experience, or try it out on a real hardware without installation. If satisfied, an optional installer is available. Use the install-cd media for older 64bit as well as 32bit machines.
    The minimal hardware requirements are defined as follows:
    Desktop plasma – 1GHz CPU / 1GB RAM / 5GB disk
    Trinity desktop – 300MHz CPU / 128MB RAM / 3GB disk ”

    http://wiki.xfce.org/minimum_requirements

    “MX Linux is a cooperative venture between the antiX and former MEPIS communities. It is a midweight OS based on a Debian Stable base and drawing from the core antiX system. Its minimum requirements are:
    A CD / DVD drive (and BIOS capable of booting from that drive), or a live USB (and BIOS capable of booting from USB)
    The modern i686 Intel or AMD processor
    512 MB of RAM memory
    5 GB free hard drive space
    For use as a LiveUSB, 4 GB free. ”

    I was unable to find the minimum hardware requirements for MX-Fluxbox at the link: http://mxlinux.org/mx-fluxbox/, I cannot understand why several Linux distros do not report the minimum hardware requirements.

    I didn’t find anything about “plain Debian”, could you please tell me where to find this Debian?

    I will have to keep many computers with 32-bit processors running with some Linux distro, preferably with those that consume less memory and less processing and that have a translation into the Portuguese language of Brazil or Portugal.

    Thankful.

    Olá Seaken64, tudo bem com você?

    Eu não conheço e nunca testei estes sistemas operacionais que você mencionou “MX and MX-Fluxbox or Q4OS or plain Debian”, você teria os valores de consumo de memória de cada um deles?

    Eu consegui encontrar o Q4OS e o MX Linux:

    http://q4os.org/downloads1.html

    “You can download either a lightweight efficient Trinity desktop, or more advanced Plasma desktop edition. Live media allow users to get a quick Q4OS experience, or try it out on a real hardware without installation. If satisfied, an optional installer is available.

    Eu não consegui encontrar os requisitos mínimos de hardware para o MX-Fluxbox no link: http://mxlinux.org/mx-fluxbox/, eu não consigo entender por que várias distros Linux não informam os requisitos mínimos de hardware.

    Eu não encontrei nada sobre o “plain Debian”, por favor, poderia me informar onde encontrar este Debian?

    Eu terei que manter muitos computadores com processadores de 32 bits em funcionamento com alguma distro Linux, de preferência com as que consomem menos memória e menos processamento e que possuam tradução para o idioma Português do Brasil ou de Portugal.

    Grato.
