When installing it on a acpire one, I used a bunch of howtos found when searching for linpus+tweaks. Managed to do almost whatever I wanted. With a few tweaks you actually get a menu with a bunch of applications that simply arent showing in the standard linpus menus. Including some outdated fedora package manager, for installing more software. About linpus. When installing it on a acpire one, I used a bunch of howtos found when searching for linpus+tweaks.

Yet they insist on only have an ISO verison on their site, no USB installer. /sigh My problem with linpus is that it is designed for netbooks, which have no cd/dvd drive.

Every time someone asks me how to install something in Aspire One, I just recommend Easy Peasy. NO ONE has found a single disadvantage in it.

If you use a netbook as a professional tool you want a more real notebook approach. The problem as I see it is that Moblin seems to be tailored for touch screen use as well. Combining a convenient touch screen UI with a classical keyboard+mouse UI is really challenging. If you are using mouse+keyboard you don't want the oversized widgets and another setup of the menus. However, I find Clutter to be a very interesting UI framwork that would have interesting capabilities on a desktop as well. If I would use Linux I would actually use a normal Linux distro.
