EEEbuntu

It's gone, the Xandros that is.. I moved to EEEBuntu, the NBR 1.0 release.
Installed like a charm .. iso2stick

Tried it first .. the live distro luxury ... and the thing that made me decide was the better font support, much more screen realestate with Eeebuntu , that and the fact that much more tools that can be installed by default from a public repository while not breaking the dependency chain.

I created a backup of my configs.. well.. home dir then live-install and off we went.

Everything works like a charm, just like with the original Xandors distro,
suspend resume works, wifi works, my whole box is back up and running.

Next goal, upgrade my laptop :)

Liferea for EEE Xandros

Dear Lazyweb,

I've been looking in all the wrong places for a Liferea package that fits nicely on my fresh ASUS EEE, with it's default Xandros and lots of external repositories enabled.
Yes I could install another distro , but I want to play with this one for a while.. then have some arguments to actually migrate .
Got some pointers for me ?
