Hi,

I have an eeepc 701 4gb surf. I use native Xandros and sometimes an installed eeebuntu on USB. The last time I used it I was in Xandros on SSD uploading with ftp and got the warning the drive was full, so I deleted some things in /usr I'd mis-saved there. Not sure if this caused the problem.

Next day, booting Xandros just produced a black screen.

Internet Problems with Eeebuntu 3 years 21 weeks ago

Hi everyone! I recently got an Eeepc for taking notes in class, decided I didn't really want to go with windows again, so looked around a bit for Linux options and decided on Eeebuntu standard. Installation went pretty decent, I still have Xp on it just in case, but I've realised I really don't know how to use linux. So helping me might be a bit painful for you guys, but here goes:

I have an ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1005HA-PU17-BK, 250 GB HDD. I'm going to put 3 different linux distros on it, like this: 1) 2 GB - xPUD (very fast booting OS, is pretty much just firefox and a music player) 2) 4 GB - Puppy Linux (fast and cute, an actual full OS)'

Hey

I'm looking for a linux netbook. My first choise is the EeePC 1225C which would be perfect for me. But the only store where I can find this netbook is the Italian Fnac store -> http://www.fnac.it/Asus-Eee-1225C-BK...a659083?PID=10 The problem is that they don't ship this to Belgium.

I've been tempted to try the eeebuntu over my Asus eeePC 1005AH and I've been surprised how simple and smooth the installation went, every component and device has been recognized correctly, from the devise manager is possible to turn on and of the WiFi, Bluetooth, webcam, the 6-cell battery provide me the regular 6+ hours, etc.

I'm planning on purchasing an Eee Netbook after the holidays and want to put linux on it. I've run Ubuntu for a couple years now and really like it but I want to make sure that I get the most out of the netbook. I've been doing some research and I'm not exactly sure what to do.

I've been using Lubuntu Netbook for quite a few days (on Asus EeePC 1015PX), but recently I encountered a problem. I could not copy files to my root partition.
