What Ubuntu version should I use? Here are the specs.
- Intel Celeron 2.80Ghz Processor
- LGA775 socket motherboard (Asus P5PE-VM)
- 2GB RAM
- 80GB Hard Drive
- Intel 865G + Intel ICH5 Chipset
- Intel Extreme Graphics 2
Thanks in advance Bombet
With a celeron processor and only 2 gigs of ram your computer will run better with lubuntu or xubuntu.lubuntu or xubuntu 32bit version. You could run ubuntu 32bit version but it will be slower then the other two.
It is not a matter of which one is better both are good but lubuntu will use the least resources so it will be a little faster and snappier.
Just make a livecd or liveusb of both and test for yourself to make sure everything works but remember the live version will be slower then when it is installed.
14.04 LTS is the latest version. 13.10 support will end in 4 days, settings can be changed to allow faster use though you might want to look at ZorinOS. It is basically a Ubuntu shell, uses all the same commands and repositories but is much faster in my experience
