Hi,
I have a 6.4-STABLE machine running in command line only for my Apache
webserver.
I'm thinking of installing a Gnome desktop on it for my 5 y/o grandson and
grown daughter to use so they won't be pestering me to use my pc.
The 5 y/o won't need anything except Firefox, some disk-based games and
Parental Controls.
For the Parental Controls, I need to limit the websites he can visit, and
the time of day he can use the computer.
The daughter will only need Firefox and a decent word processor.
The computer is a P3 600, 256mb ram, ATI 3D Rage IIc video, plenty of disk
space.
Will Gnome2 or gnome-lite be faster?
What is available for Parental Controls?
Should I forget it because it will be too slow based on the machine's
hardware?
