    Which distro works fully with the NC10 out of the box and needs no additional content?

    How do you install linux on the machine without wiping off everything youve already got on its 2 partitions?

    hmmm, that looks incredibly complicated and even then some stuff doesnt work at the end of all the editing and recompiling.

    fedora 10 seems to work well. ill try that i guess

    nope, fedora core 10 live doesnt work right either.

    trackpad is all messed up. vertical mouse pointer acceleration is far greater than horizontal and its a right pain to actually select things as a result. :/
