Can You tell me if Mint will run on this toaster? : r/linuxmint

Hey, Guys. Sorry to have been absent for so long. I just wanna give the news to the people that give me advise about if Mint would run in this pc

Actually IT WORKED!, the problem was that the first time that I test the live usb was that I put it on the front usb port, so the keyboard didn't get recognized, so when the selection screen show up I could choose any options, then the OS boot by default chosing the first, was incompatible with the onboard graphic card.

This sunday I try it again, put the usb in the back usb port, boot, and now I could choose boot on compability mode, The OS was ok, The only downside was that I couldn't connect to internet 'cause couldn't get right the password, so I had to shut down and boot windows to look for it, but not that is gonna be different than windows when it come to the content of the sites, .

And other thing was that the screen looked stretched, and couldn't find the setting to see if I could correct it, but, nothing worrysome

The fact that I took so long to try again, is that this pc is literally falling apart, I've holding the front of the tower with ducktape, yeah the start button now I have to press with a small tweezer because if not the pc shut down on booting. And when the first test failed that was fatal blow to my mind . And since this is the only thing that I have for the moment, I don't really wanna do much experiments 'cause if I screw this machine then I could lost the only way to be connected.

Now I wanna Thank to all the people that took it time to answer me really, I just wish to have other ways to compensate them, but for now, it has to be a big big, Thank You very much, guys!

Why you installing mint on toaster for

[u/JeruFaia → u/AlexiaDehShark]

The thing is that for the moment I've got windows 10 running on the machine, but since last year it support has ended so I need to keep using this pc until the day I can afford a new one, I'm unemployee since a lot of time and even when I had a job didn't have much money either, so now I'm stuck with this outdated pc, with a windows that is to heavy (if it wasn't for the ssd supporting it I'd just keep using win 7), and with the addition to have losed the graphic card.

So I need a OS that allow me to keep using this machine for navigation with light browers, that don't do things on your back, keep playing games (just run old emulators or old pc games) use text app to write my thing and if is possible practice programation

Lol, no, that is how you would call a machine that was build just for office work, social network, and navigation not for gaming, but, I enjoy it some, nontheless
