(mander.xyz) submitted 3 years ago by SnailMagnitude@mander.xyz to c/linux@lemmy.ml 41 comments fedilink hide all child comments Will be doing a fresh install on an old laptop in the near future and was considering trying wayland. Can you recommend a decent & light window manager & terminal emulator? I've played around with wayland but always ended up back on xorg, was gonna give it another shot.
[–] PuppyOSAndCoffee@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 years ago (1 child) I like puppy linux as a distro for old laptop refurb, starts lean and mean, allowing older laptops to recapture some of their former glory. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SnailMagnitude@mander.xyz [S] 2 points 3 years ago Void is my plan. I went with Fedora last time as I couldn't be bothered setting up Void properly and Fedora was the only distro with a generic kernel that seemed old mac trackapd/keyboard friendly at time. I've not tried Puppy for a long time, I tend to opt for AntiX or Porteus in that kinda area. permalink fedilink source parent
