[NTLUG:Discuss] new distro

[Donald Davis]

A question:

Why not support PI?

Side note:

I've tried KateOS, Vector, Debian low/mem, Deli Linux, Basic Linux, Xubuntu, DSL , FreeBSD, older Slackware and probably other feather weight / distros geared towards minimal prerequisites.  Basic ran the smoothest and DSL has superb hard ware support. Debian performed best across categories.  
For video it would be nice to see a distro that provides a guaranteed resolution (simple VGA) if the video card can't be identified (DSL basically does this could be better implemented).
Network cards / pcmcia extra thorough support.  Sound, printers etcetera can be fixed later possibly.  If you can't network / connect to the internet you're up a creek.  

IceWM.  I love IceWM.  However, I think the biggest discouragement for many users is the 'my desktop' concept.  I understand you don't want nautilus or the like running in the background eating up cpu and memory.  Could there be a listing / linking alternative to somehow at least make a folder on an IceWM desktop that could be activated and used in a fashion similar to 'my desktop.'
