I have an eeePC 1000 that came with the xandros derivative which I dumped within 24 hours.  I tried a couple of different things but did not like the NBR.  I had easypeasy next on the list to try but was happy with eeebuntu.  It has been very solid and got everything both working and controllable.<br>

<br>I did not know they had issues with 9.04 and actually upgraded last night.  There was a problem during the upgrade which was kind of messy to fix.  Basicly it had a dependency problem with libc6-dev dependency on libc6 which was apparently not installed at that time.  I ended up having to do this:<br>
