Hi Thomas,

Thank you for your email and recommendation. It seems that knoppix uses
less ram. However I do not know how to install new programs in knoppix
(still there is apt-get install as a command, but debian packages no longer
seem to work, and I do not know which packages work with knoppix system,
and I believe this is a forum on debian so I am not sure where to ask the
knoppix questions.) I also can not adjust screen brightness, and I had to
boot with secure boot disabled.
