Homer1 LQ Newbie Registered: Oct 2006 Posts: 2 Rep:	Dell Latitude CPx P3 256 Meg Ram I previously had XP Pro but ran slow. I formated the hard drive. I installed Ubuntu and it runs good. I have Suse 10.1 and Mandrivia 6 on my desktop and like both better than Unbuntu. I have tried to load Suse 10.1 and it tells me not enough ram. When I try to load Mandriva 6 after a fresh format it begins to load for about a minute and stops and the computer turns off. I have tried several other distros and get the same problem. I reloaded Ubuntu and all is fine except it is not what I want. Question is, is this a ram problem as with Suse 10.1? I can't find minimum requirements for the different distros. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
