[Tunku]

Hard to do, isn't it?

Huh? What problems you got, what version of Ubuntu and so on and so forth.

T21, 128 Meg, Ubuntu 7.2 - very slow

With that little RAM you need the alternative install CD, not the live desktop one.

Might be worth looking at the XFCE version too - much lower overhead than the Gnome desktop.

Try xubuntu instead.

+1

128MB is too little RAM to run either the full GNOME or KDE desktop.

Memory aside found your problem. No such version.
