xubuntu - What Ubuntu version or flavor should I use? - Ask Ubuntu


my objective have linux pc run tor browser. laptop has intel centrino processor 1.70ghz 512mb ram, ati mobility radeon 9600 128mb. flavour suggest?

i have tried:

  • lubuntu - freezes image on install
  • xubuntu - says processor non-pae
  • linux mint - other problems , errors
  • puppy - other problems , errors

also, every time try boot usb, boot error.

i suggest go lubuntu-16-04-lts 32-bit image found here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/lubuntu/alternate_iso - system installer should charm. on site might take 90min installation complete , not hang though there nothing happening while. if error pae-kernel might have add forcepae boot options explained here.

as appears, hardware these boot options nomodeset , forcepae need set in grub.

so after installation completed, suggest go tor-browser-bundle torproject.org.

before install let's move downloads home-directory; in terminal type mv ~/downloads/tor-browser-linux32-6.0.5_lang.tar.xz tor-browser-linux32-6.0.5_lang.tar.xz(replace lang appropiate language).

now let's unpack tar -xvjf tor-browser-linux32-6.0.5_lang.tar.xz switch newly created directory cd tor-browser_lang , complete installation ./start-tor-browser.desktop.

since want tor-browser offered in menu , not click through directories, suggest run - still in same terminal above - cp start-tor-browser.desktop ../.local/share/applications/start-tor-browser.desktop

good night , luck ;)
