I would get hold of the latest version from either anoncvs or as the
tarball on the scribus.org.uk website and compile - it is massively
better than 1.0.1

You didn't mention which distro you're using - some are better than
others.

A P2 333 should be fine with vsn 1.1.2 as it has a pretty low overhead.
Memory wise, 64Mb should be okay. A bit slow, but okay. The monster I
have here is a 2.7GHz P4 with just under 1Gb memory and mega-stonk
graphics card. Nice if you can get one...

TTFN
