<pats Asus Eee> 11.2 running out the box. I must go back to it and see
if I can strip it down a little, but it does what I need it for.

Running standard Suse install on acer aspire-one. No tweeks, just the
network install from usb-disk. No problems.

I'm running 11.2 with Xfce on an Eee PC900 (700MHz, 1G RAM) and it does
reasonably well. It's a lot faster than when I tried 11.0 with Kde 3 on it,
and it was slow but usable.

Most of what I use it for is OpenOffice Writer and Calc when I'm away from
home. I still can't get it to mount an SD card, the camera, or the WiFi,
but I haven't done much beyond a minor attempt with Yast.

Hi
Have a look over in the openSUSE forum wireless area, lwfinger
(wireless kernel dev) has a couple of stickies for wireless;

Have you checked dmesg for the SD and camera. My 1000HE has no problems
with cheese. Even packaged up grabby the other day to take single shots;

If you can sort out the sd card, I did a howto on getting goblin on one
and running on my netbook;

I've been running 11.0 and am now 11.2, off-the-shelf in AsusEeePC 900.
KDE with 6 face cubes and Cover Switch (I like that a lot) to show off,
LXDE part of the time just to see how it's developing.

Everything just works.

I have an issue in my "main machine" but that's another post.
