I bought an Acer Aspire One to play with at the LUG and to give to a family member at Christmas. It's one of the first Intel Atom Netbooks out there. It comes with a distro called Linpus, which is an ofshoot of Fedora. I actually plan to, compare it with Ubuntu Netbook Edition, and the Fedora 10 version of its own packages. Any thoughts on what elseyou want to see it do would be welcome. I just bought it
The Acer One has some very interesting hardware and I'm still finding more surprises...
Try the newest 2.6.27 kernels with the native ath5k wireless driver. Did you know the Atheros AR5006EG chip has 58 channels up to 2.732 GHz at 501mW? You can find these settings in /usr/src/linux/net/wireless/reg.c
