@topher if you like #SGI #IRIX, then maybe @bunsenlabs / #BunsenLabs woth it's #OpenBox desktop is right up your alley?

• It's a #Debian-based distro and it barely sips resources to the point that even a #Poulsbo (#AtomZ520 + #GMA500)-based #Netbook (in my case a Vaio #P11Z) can run it fluidly as software renderer (#llvmpipe)...

@EpicPawt I can recommend to take a look at #TinyCore and #BunsenLabs if you like some #smol #desktop #distro...

TinyCore is a #BusyBox / #Linux and @bunsenlabs is a nifty #Debian derivate which runs even on a #GMA500 / #Poulsbo / #IntelAtom Z-series system like the #VaioP11Z just fine despite using #llvmpipe for rendering...

@krutonium I can recommend @bunsenlabs / #BunsenLabsLinux which runs smooth in my #Vaio #P11Z with the shitty #GMA500 in #llvmpipe.

• If that's too straining, consider #TinyCore, which us a #BusyBox-based distro - abeit very minimalist.

Those are the options with a fancy #GUI.

• I aim for #i486 with @OS1337 (if #Linux didn't cancel #i386 and #toxbox never bothered with it, I'd aim dir that!) but as of now that isn't useable.

@sodiboo if you think #nvidia is shit, wait till you get #Itel's shotty #Rebadge if #PowerVR SGX aka. #GMA500 & GMA3xx0-Series...

• Your only options are #llvmpipe which is a pain in the ass on those #IntelAtom chips or nothing at all...

@weirdfish @oldperl es gibt nen #fallback...

#SofwareRenderer [wie bei #Windows] per #llvmpipe...

• Und ja auf modernen High-End - Systemen geht damit auch #Crysis...

Okay, korrekterweise ist der #FOSS-Treiber #nouveau zu benennen, aber wenn ihr nen Schuldigen sucht, dann müsst ihr #nvidia's Kundendienst konsequent abnerven bis diese einen brauchbaren Treiber als #FLOSS releasen...
