Hi Everyone, I'm a relatively new linux user (been using Kubuntu for a year or so), and recently I decided to fix up a very old desktop machine we had lying around. Installed Lubuntu, and it was still a bit slow for my liking so I put in some new-old parts:
- Upgraded from 1gb RAM to 4
- Single core AMD 1.5ghz processor swapped for a dual core processor
- Added Nvidia Geforce 210 video card
- Decided to keep the 2007 vintage Asus motherboard to save $$
Now Lubuntu is running everything like a charm, super snappy (to be honest I'm not sure I've used a system this responsive in a long time), and I'm pretty happy with Lubuntu's bare-bones desktop environment.
Problem is, Xonotic won't run. 0 A.D. works though. Any ideas how to get Xonotic running in Lubuntu, or should I just swap out Lubuntu for a fuller-featured linux distribution? At this point the hardware I've got should be able to support Kubuntu, but it probably won't be as snappy on this machine.
