Hi all

Which do u think is the fastest debian-based distro???

Only Dreamlinux & Xubuntu come to my mind.
I'm yet to try Dreamlinux but I REALLY liked its website! COOOL!
http://www.dreamlinux.com.br/english/index.html

Do you know of any others??

PLz don't mention any distros which come with KDE!
Anyways I think Kanotix is the fastest KDE distro I've seen but I wonder when on earth they will release Kanotix 2006!!! Its been ages..

So which do u think is the fastest debian-based distro???

Thanks

Damn Small Linux (http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/) or Debian Etch.

Damn Small, followed by Overclockix. Kubuntu is pretty snappy, though.

Elive or DSL

DSL by far. (Haven't tried e-live).

Without a doubt Knoppix 5.0.1 for overall speed and reliabilty.

aquamorph (http://aquariusoft.org/page/linux/) is super, super fast also.

The mother of all, debian itself ;)

Custom base install
Debian Edgy Eft Beta 3

xdm - login manager
icewm 1.2.28 - window manager
conky 1.4.2 - system monitor

My setup runs really fast and snappy! :D
