> Same on my 701. I have installed debian-eeepc (lenny), with xfce rather
than gnome or kde (kde filled up the disk when I first tried it). I did
a full OO 2.4 install. Still got 1.7GB of my 3.7GB "disk" left for my
files, and I can edit files from work with it, so I'm happy. By the
way, debian-eeepc can be recommended for anyone who's tired of the
original xandros (which Asus appear to have abandoned). It works pretty
well - I even get horizontal scroll on the touchpad!
