 Linux with 512MB RAM :( - teabelly
You perhaps need to do a custom install. If it using that much memory then it is probably starting up loads of things you don't need....

Some of the older redhat desktop versions are ok in 512mb. Personally I'd go back to linplus and scout around for gui based control panel type apps. Which window manager are you using?
