Arch is currently only available in i686 and x86_64, so unless you want to recompile for another architecture,and then work without a package manager, you'll have no luck.<br>Also, arch probably isn't the best candidate for cutting edge driver support, so if you want a lightweight system, I'd probably suggest that you go for an ubuntu minimal install, and build your GUI from the command line. <br>

The recent thread on power saving on laptops was interesting.<br>
<br>
I am currently trying to get an old compaq tc1000 tablet working with<br>
linux [256mb ram transmeta crusoe processor]<br>
<br>
its running pretty snappily with debian lenny and lxde but I'd really like<br>
to try out Arch linux on it as I think I'd have more success getting the<br>
pen drivers working.<br>
<br>
But I can't find a i586 version of arch linux on the net<br>
<br>
does anybody have a disc they could copy for me ?<br>
<br>
I'll be at the meeting tonight if anyone can help<br>
<br>
