Hardy Heron on Asus eeePC 900 (Linux)

    Hi,

    First time poster. And first time Linux user

    I've a Asus eeePC 900 running a cut down version of Xandros. I want to install Ubuntu 8.04 (as I have on my laptop).

    I've been looking at http://www.ubuntu-eee.com/ but that seems more focussed on the eeePC 700.

    Anyway, I have Ubuntu running off a USB key and it works okay, but no wireless, webcam, etc. So before I take the plunge and install it, I was wondering if anyone has here has installed Ubuntu and ended up with a fully functioning netbook.

    Thanks,

    Gtxizang.

    If your looking for a version to install i would recommend www.eeebuntu.org instead, fully configured kernal to support your laptop. Try ubuntu netbook remix version. ...

    Any update on this? I'm thinking of trying Xubuntu with Adamm's kernel when I get my 1000H.

    And No, I don't have any idea what the above actually means.
