I installed Debian on my 701 4GB Eee the other day. Runs perfectly, I couldn't ask for more. The only thing I need to fix is wifi. I either use the MadWifi or the Atheros drivers. Doesn't sounds too hard, I had it working before...apparently. Not sure if sound works or not, I don't use it that much so I disabled it in the BIOS to save power.
Something is wrong with my server.... I tried to access it via SSH & HTTP and nothing. Turn on the monitor; kernel panic. Whatever, I rebooted. CRC error. Rebooted; works fine but Apache doesn't start.
Anyways, its Sunday time to relax and download some distros
I'll post back later...
whats the benefits of Debian?
In my opinion; apt-get. On the Eee, its quite speedy even in Gnome. Beautiful and just easy to use. I don't quite what it is, I just love Debian.
