Drivers for net.laptops?!? EeePC and ACER-ONE

Postby factor-h on Sun Aug 31, 2008 5:26 pm

I believe this would be a great beat...EeePC and ACER-ONE drivers... in the distro.

Problem is testing... This would have to be a live distro... as I spend weeks tweaking here and there my ACER-ONE and a friends EeePC.

But that's also the reason... EvryOne with one of these needs a distro that works from the start.
There's just one for the Eee and is regular ubuntu based... not Xubuntu.
Actually I tried Xubuntu with my ACER but the tweaks for Ubuntu didn't work well.
Later I may do the trick and put Xubuntu to work... but now it is the regular Ubuntu at service.
I suggest it because it would catch a lot of users... actually 2 whole populations (Eee and A-ONE)

BTW - The inclusion of WINE is a very nice touch... so people CAN use some of their favorite programs... even games.
Not everything is work-work-work.... I was just surprised not to find DOSBOX since it is really small.
... and this small emulator (DOS-BOX) really has an amazing value/size ratio that is VERY appealing ...
... specially now that a lot of old gems are available as abandonware. (but that is just an idea.)
I know a distro cannot have it all.... I do suggest just because it is so small and appealing.
