You can almost assuredly run freeBSD with KDE on that system. I did with my 366mhz thinkpad and it was fine. If you had the availability of more RAM, it would be helpful, but 320 would cut it. I'm not sure what your video issues were with Mandrake and you didn't send your video card spex/brand/etc. It seems from a quick google search that people got FreeBSD running on a computer of that model since they are asking how to get the winModem running. I recommend trying it and seeing if it works. -- If I write a signature, my emails will appear more personalised.
