I'm cobbling together a really low-end XBMC box consisting of a P4 class Celeron 2.8ghz, 256mb RAM, and 512mb 8400GS PCI video card booting from a 2gb thumb drive running Jaunty Minimal and XBMC accessing all media over wired ethernet. When setup properly with VDPAU I should have full hardware acceleration for most video, including Flash using 10.1 player.
Given the low-end nature of the underlying processor/memory, will I be able to smoothly run skins like Aeon Stark? This low-end box will be in a bedroom, with an Acer AX1301 in the main theater. I'd like the two to share a common interface and plan on Aeon on the Theater PC. If not, what skins run well with smooth transitions on low-end hardware like what I'm assembling?
Thanks in advance.
