Sadly for 32 support you need some of the following distros: debían, Arch, Gentoo. Gentoo even though is the most difficult one, is the best because is source based. I have a pentium-m 1.6Ghz single core with 1.5GiB of RAM. And It work perfectly on kernel 6.12 and everything updated. I recommend you to setup a distcc setup on a beefier computer and use Gentoo on the weak computer. And the environment recommended is i3wm.
Currently, MX Linux (Fluxbox ver would prob be the best for this), Puppy Linux, Antix and a few others still support 32 bit comps. Would love to see your reactions on MX Linux Fluxbox since its really lightweight.
Ubuntu mate exist
broo @petabyteag im for the first time watching you! Well Ubuntu 16.04 LTS IS WAY OUT OF DATE! Ubuntu 18.04 LTS still supports 32-bit. but its also EOL too just like Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. The single solution to get modern versions of Ubuntu, Change the CPU to a 64-bit one. u can replace Ubuntu with Lubuntu since its Ubuntu but more lightweight. And well, u can even run those EOL releases with Ubuntu Pro! well atleast it gives home users security updates for their OLD Ubuntu version they are running. However, u should do my reccomends in a next vid or something by putting a 64-bit cpu and installing the latest Lubuntu
I looked up the Inspiron 1300 and it has an IDE HDD. As SSDs for IDE aren't widely available, you will either need another IDE HDD or SATA HDD/SSD with adapter. You have wifi 3/G internally, so try a Linux compatible usb 2.0 wifi adapter that is somewhat more modern (4/N 300/600, possibly 5/AC if your kernel supports it) to speed up internet access some. Enjoyed the video and good luck 😀!
That was the first laptop I bought with my own money.
You should try out windows vienna
9:59 same bro same 😢
11:31. ex celeron owner here, its normal for celerons to run quite hot, my old celeron PC ran at 60 celcius idle, that with new thermalpaste
theres a version of windows 7 like this called project 7000, its made by the youtube vista6002
hes back !!!
17:36, some linux distros (most of the ones that use KDE) allow you to disable this in the trackpad options, meaning you can use the trackpad while typing.
The power of a discrete GPU, baby
Gateway recently made a comeback, they started selling laptops again, a little overpriced though
Jokes aside, I had the Phenom version for uni, was my first laptop, maxed the RAM to 2GB and swapped the HDD for an SSD, still runs, no issues, and while dated, it was an absolute unit with Fedora 8
$950 in 2006 is $1,486.70 today's money. Damn, computers were expensive! And this was the first of your vids that the algorithm served me. Very cool, subscribed :>
Moo compoter
DDR in 2006? That's how you know it's a cheap computer. DDR2, please.
Probably to save money
Linux resque this pc😊
void linux to impress here but to run forever try elive os. most probably it is running vesa drivers ubuntu kill support faster than other distros...
Maybe use the SSD and you will get a better experience with any OS; not much, but better.
Pretty nice video ngl I was jokingly thinking through the whole thing "install gentoo" but in all seriousness it's nice to see ubuntu 16.04 running on it, reminds me of my first moments using linux. Keep up the good work man
The modern internet slows down old computers as well, the hardware can’t handle all the multimedia on websites
install windows long horn
Dam I think that I remember back in elementary school I think I remember that I was on the school PC’s and windows used to look like that 🤔
I'm still using Windows 7 in my HP Mini laptop and I can still say to this day that it is the best and the simple OS to use. Windows 7 sill looks modern with it's theme
looks like windows 11 and vista and ME 🤪😜
im pretty sure arch linux has a 32 bit version
Not compareable to windwos but you could try alpine, which is very lightweight and has hardware support for 32 bit
my first laptop and only one
You must brought them on eBay from one seller. I brought one also from eBay. I still have mine and still in the box sealed in my closest.
i installed tiny10 on an intel centrino pentium M 725 processor and its not compatible pls help
Use antix 32bit.
install bodhi linux on this! Installer might seem slow at first but as soon as it got installed it's pure speed!
Kinda miss this thing, I used to have it but the display broke somehow
Ah, the Delta 130W. Those are the best, they run the coolest. Other manufacturers for those are Lite-On, Flextronics and Chicony.
I got one a year or so ago, it died in less than a week (no beep, no life)

Replace the old aging hdd with either an SSD (using adapters if needed) or a more helathy HDD btw. It will help ALOT with those crashes, freezes and errors that might happen when it swaps to the dying disk
It's not usable, the problem is not the age but the CPU. 2006 Core 2 would be barely usable. AMD was bad back then as well. For a laptop like this I don't see past it being used for things that don't require internet. Personally it could be an offline Windows XP gaming machine for me and even then it might not run every old game.
