Anyone know minimum requirements to run Ubuntu. The main flavor as well as any other you want to share. Also, suggest any other distrio for a 15 year old laptop. Thanks.

    2 GHz dual-core processor or better, 4 GB system memory, 25 GB of free hard drive space (per official documentation)

    The main Ubuntu flavor is pretty heavy since it uses GNOME, you are better off running Lubuntu, Xubuntu or Ubuntu Mate. For very low end hardware you could use something like antiX.

      I’ve never used Ubuntu, but I used Debian for a while and the Mate desktop and highly recommend Mate.
