I still have problems getting my Esprimo V5535 from Fujistsu Siemens, to open wlan. I have looked everywhere and failed. It is an ath5k driver and the computer sees it. [Esprimo V5515] graphics driver for linux. Moderator: ModTeam. 3 posts • Page 1 of 1. Product(s): Esprimo Mobile 5535. Re: Esprimo V5515 graphics driver for linux.

Hello everyone! My relative has an old laptop (probably 8 years old): Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo Moble (I believe it's 500 series, I can't see it right now, as I don't have access to that computer for the moment). Originally it came with Windows Vista (mercy, please!).

Couple of months ago I saved this computer by introducing Linux. Unfortunately I had a very hard time finding a good distro that could work well with that computer. The biggest issue was the screen resolution.

For some reason I could only use very low screen resolution, Ubuntu & Mint didn't let me even go above 800x600 (while this computer under Windows was working under 1280x800 - if I remember correctly). Elementry OS turned out to be a way better option, everything worked better, but still not at the maximum resolution and the video is always cutting (it doesn't play smoothly), and also after few months of using elementry OS there appeared some annoying thins about that distro (for example side bars navigators). My question to you guys is: what would be the best distro for such a computer?

The laptop's owner is using it only for few software: Firefox with Flashplayer (web browsing, YouTube, etc.) LibreOffice: Calc & Writer Inkscape (vector graphics) Qmmp (for listening to music) VLC Player (watching movies) and rarely: GIMP (drawing / graphics). Realtracks Jazz. I don't know about the Esprimo per se, but I installed Manjaro (Arch based) with Xfce as desktop environment on an Amilo, that is also very, very old, and it worked really well.

But probably most distros that aren't too 'heavy' (in other words it's probably best to avoid Gnome 3, KDE and Unity) should work. I know nothing about Arch distros. I would prefer to stick to Debian-based. Does Arch uses X11 for the keyboard? Also I would like to add some questions: My friend who is a Linux fanatic recommended me LXLE or Q4OS. What are your thoughts on these? Basically speaking there are sooo many distros out there that is really hard to decide.

And also, if some programs are made specifically for Debian-based distros, is there a way to run them under other distros? Does Skype work under any distro? Skype is also the other very important software for the laptop's owner, that I forgot to mention in the first post. Does Skype work under any distro?

Not sure but I know that installing it can offer varying levels of difficulty depending upon the distribution.
