Re: Thinkpad 365X - can anyone recommend least memory hungry windows and browser
You can try minimalistic window managers such as wm2, flwm, lwm... I
doubt that it will help, though. Your problem is your choice of
application software -- I'm surprised that it runs at all :-) Check
out galeon (sorry, no .deb yet). If you don't mind non-free, look at
opera (.deb on www.opera.com).
