i am looking into a minimalist approach... want to know where to cut the fat..... what programs are essential to it running and what are not, i understand about most of the software, but i'm looking into resources and alternatives i've run 2.8 lite it was nice, some things did not work properly not sure if it was python or whatnot...
with 2.6.1 i have an awesome conky and code works with it (thanks Thee Mann) i also am playing with Oz Unity 1.0 (yeah i've been busy) and most here should also know me from there forum...... is there a way to trim 2.6.1 down ?

depending on the responce i may just burn and run from a usb for xperiments.....

speaking of that, i've gotten the idea to mod my netbook with a "permenant" usb chip yes it will kill one usb slot permantly, what are youir takes on that, running ubuntu obviously, i barely use my windows now, just to check my isp mail account as i forgot the password.... haha. ok enough blah blah blah.

Bad idea, here is why.

Same reason turbo boost for vista and windows 7 was a flop.

Bandwidth for USB rail is not per USB slot for all of the USB slots combined.

Use a lot of bandwidth on one slot and the others become very slow.

USB devices like keyboards / mice ETC use hardly any bandwidth . But media can use a ton, forcing all other USB slots to become near worthless.

Tried this once, ran Ultimate Edition 2.7 off a 16 GB USB flash drive.

When I added another flash drive to transfer some programs, transfer rate was 1/10 the normal rate.
