    Exactly what distro are you using?

    Hello Maurice!

    No distribution but instead a bastardized "Linux From Scratch" (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/). I've been doing this for about 25 years now. The last official distribution I ran was ttylinux, which was the very first x86_64 ttylinux if the truth be told.

    How about you?

    No specific linux installation yet. I've only been using
    different live-CD versions from time to time to test
    compatibility and performance on the aging machines that I
    have. If/when it comes down to it, I will probably use Mint on
    my Thinkpad T60.

    I did try Manjaro 64bit on an old Dell desktop a few years ago,
    and it performed quite quite will with the NVIDIA video and
    supported the 64bit command-set support on basically just 4GB
    ram max - but a 32bit OS might be more logical for that one.
