I have gotten Easy Peasy installed onto Tiny (my EEE 904HA). It works great (which is a far cry from the previous version, or plain vanilla Ubuntu "Intrepid Ibex"). The netbook remix rocks. The network and wireless works (finally!--talk about frustrating. All the fixes people posted began with "go to the command line and type sudo apt-get..."--kinda hard to do when you have no network connection..chicken and the egg). Sound works. The camera works. Closing the lid to sleep works. But I still had to futz about with /etc/fstab for my hard drive partitions to be automounted, and I still had to manually futz with my .bashrc to swp the up arrow and right shift keys.
Still, for free, it ain't bad.
I've loaded Gimp and Hugin and Mathmap and Wine. I wonder if I should load Scribus.... and I wish it did booklet page imposition. I really miss that PageMaker feature.
