Bought a Acer Aspire One

With a little help from my friends (Andreas Thiennemann in particular), I managed to get my hands on a piece of equipment I was planning on buying anyway; a netbook.

Here in Canada though, these things are particularly cheap.

Next on the list of things to do is:

Never boot anything but a superior version of the greatest Operating System on a piece of equipment as cool as a netbook. The first thing that Acer will attempt to boot is a Windows Vista based eRecovery Suite in order for you to install Windows XP Home. I rest my case.
Download Fedora 12.
Check the list of things you need to know before trying all kinds of things to make the foo work. In my case, I found this page very useful. For one, it helped me boot Fedora ;-)

Jeroen

I also have a AAO and running F12 on it without problem. Just a few notes - the AAO doesn't have Bluetooth so don't waste time trying to get it to run. You might try the Fedora Moblin gui - I didn't like it. I personally prefer KDE. Sound works on KDE but not on my Gnome (maybe i'm missing some setting). Suspend works if I sign off that way - lid closing doesnt' work for me. Video capture with Cheese is real jerky - maybe hardware, maybe Cheese - don't know of another program to capture video thru camera but would be good to test. The AAO comes with 3 or 6 cell battery - I have 3 and only get about 1.5 hrs battery life - really need the 6 cell. Wifi seems to work fine.

My conclusion: it's really handy for bringing to meetings - both for using and carrying. But I have lots of trouble with touchpad sensitivity and touchbar location. I see it as stopgap until nice tablets show up next year.
