Got myself a laptop finally, it is a eeepc 1000h, comes with windows xp, the fun part is, I got it slightly cheaper than most, and 2 gig of ram, which added extra, also 2 year warranty, for RM1845. At lowyat.
It is a machine, that comes with windows xp, which I format it. And I install ubuntu on it.
Step 1:
Download ubuntu, then copy to a pendrive, using unetbootin. The instruction is on the page.
Step 2:
Plug in the pendrive, press ESC key, when you turn on the computer, then select the pendrive, you should be able to boot into ubuntu.
Step 3:
Setup ubuntu, that is straight forward.
Step 4:
Now install the custom kernel. Using array.org kernel. After this, the wireless should be working. And other hardware too, to be honest, didn't test the camera.
Step 5:
Install the acpi script. Just to make it work nicer.
Step 6:
Now one more thing didn't work well, the sound is not loud. Download the alsa upgrade script
Step 7:
Install netbook remix.
As you see, I didn't use anything that is special, just use instruction from the web. And it works well.
