Edubuntu for Older Computers

I’ve used Xubuntu in the past. It works pretty good on older or low memory computers but recently I needed to install Ubuntu on an older system that still had 192mb of ram. It’s a Celeron 800 and under Xubuntu, it worked pretty good, but after a strange failure, I needed to reinstall Ubuntu and only had regular Ubuntu and Edubuntu CD to do the install with.

The Edubuntu Workstation Install is text based installer. It was very straight forward, just as straight forward as the graphical Live CD install. After the install, the system worked perfect.

It has Open Office, Scribus, Gimp,. Firefox, Gcompris, the KDE Education Pack, Kino Video Editor and more. If you need anything else, you can add in the Add/Remove dialog that exists in regular Ubuntu.
