Hello all:
I thought I'd post a question here to find out how other Asus Eee PC
users are doing with Ubuntu.
I have yet to install Ubuntu but after having fiddled around with
Xandros for a while I've come to the conclusion I'd rather have Ubuntu
running this machine than a flakey, poorly coded hack job (e.g. if you
try to save a file in FireFox 2.0.7, FireFox will no longer accept
keyboard input until you close & reopen the application).
The only thing that the hackjob has going for it, I suspect, is that
some apps probably have had their dialogue boxes resized to fit the
800*480 screen, and, they've got reasonable integration of multimedia
apps & codecs with FireFox.
Have people here tried Ubuntu (yes, I imagine :-) on their little Eee
PC, and, if so, have you run into problems with over-sized dialogue
boxes?
PS I love my Eee PC -- it's amazing in how FAST and SMALL it is...
I've already managed to misplace it in my backpack because it's so
small (I thought I'd left it at home but I'd put it in the SMALLest
compartment in the backpack) ... I regularly lug around textbooks that
are twice the size and weight of this tiny laptop.
Thanks, Eric.
