I have succesfully built and installed 3.3.6 some weeks ago on 4.9-RELEASE system. The situation I have is somewhat similar, one of my old 486 machines got work to do as X-terminal. It has 100Mhz i486DX4 processor, 16MB of RAM and S3805 VLB video card with 2 megs of mem. Works wonderfully.. my kids happily play 2D "platform" games and surf the net, KDE3.2 for eyecandy and stuff.. -- Vallo Kallaste
