Hi all, I’m trying to install Bodhi Legacy in my old computer (Celeron M 1.3GHz, 2GB ram) but it is impossible because the CPU is always at the maximum use so I can’t move the mouse or press a button. This happens with all light Linux I tried. The boot from usb or dvd takes almost one hour to show the desktop (when I’m lucky). I know the cpu percentage because antiX has it on the desktop. When you move the mouse or press a button the cpu goes from 0 to 99% and it is all stuck. Thank you for help me.

I would try figuring out what specificially is using all that cpu, and not use it/load it! Since it's affecting mutiple distrubutions its probably something graphics related, but to rule out basics, I would make sure it's not happening when you are at a text console without X loaded.
To check this from bodhi, open tty (CTRL+ALT+F2) and login
sudo service lightdm stop # stop all the graphical stuff sudo apt install htop # install a tool to check cpu/memory usage htop # check cpu usage sudo service lightdm start # turn back on graphical stuff when yer done When you're running htop, if cpu usage is still high, sort by cpu usage and see what's using it...
