Hardware Compatibility

Asked by Travis

I have an old Compaq Presario 7464 with an AMD K6-II clocked at 533 MHz. It has 384MB of RAM. I was wondering if Ubuntu 4.10 "Warty Warthog". Will it work with all of the video drivers and so on?

itll work but there is zero support and zero packages for it. I recommend you install Precise minimal then install xdm and fluxbox for lightness. You will need to use the minimal ISO as your CPU does not support PAE.

Can you help with this problem?
