I can run Windows 10 at a crawl or try something else. I've tried MX 18 and Mint 19 XFCE. But the machine will not suspend on that open source Radeon driver. So I'm contemplating putting MX 16 on it based on Jesse with the FGLRX driver which is still available there I understand. I know it only has 1 year long term support left, but this machine will mostly be used for word processing anyway.
First, where do I find a MX 16 ISO?
Secondly, if anyone has any ideas or suggestions how to get Linux with suspend working on a newer version I'd love to hear it.
Thanks for any help.
Here is the specs when I was trying Mint on it:
