I realy want to try Linux, I have a PM-100D AMPTRON mother baord with on board video and sound. I have a K6-2 400Mhz cpu 191mb of no name ram. I have tryed red hat 5.2 but I cant seam to get the xwindows to work I have tryed every thing in the book and have searched the web for answers. I know 5.2 is out dated, and I know there must be an easyer way but I cant find my motherboard in any compatability(?) lists. so if any one has any suggestions I would love to here them.
