EDIT: I give up.
I had enough of Puppy linux and other distros. I cant believe that there is no Ubuntu distro that use less that 512mb of ram. So i woid like so recommendtations please.
Hello by the way, since im new to the forums, anyways,
I am having a problem on my laptop, every distro i try, doesn't matter if its just command line or in a desktop enviroument, the screen is always glitched, has black bars and out of place. This is getting on my nerves and the only solution to this problem is to change the resolution to 1024x768 or 800x600, but the native resolution of my laptop is 1280x800. The laptop in question is a Compaq Presario v3500 with a AMD T-57 1.9Ghzz Dual-Core nVidia GeForce 7150M 2GB ram.
Please view the image below to see what i am talking about. It would help if anyone can tell me a solution to this problem.
This affects Ubuntu and Xubuntu also, not just Puppy Linux.
If anyone can find a solution to my problem that works, thanks a bunch.
