Thanks John.Sorry to go off topic a bit here....
I don't think the XO is so bad...I mean it does 1200x900 in Monochrome...that's a very interesting proposition even if it means you browse the web in mono.

Do you think it would be possible to run DSL on the XO or is DSL limited to Intel processor/motheboard chips?

XO: hmmm... that's interesting. I wonder if the virtualized version they've made available  has any way to switch to the higher resolution?  I agree, it might be enough to view in b/w if the resolution was there.  I'll check this when I can.

I don't know enough about DSL to answer the question realting to hardware.  I'm curious too.

I have one!  Using slax but madwifi isn't running the wireless or the internal lan.  Ndiswrapper also failed.

Downloading DSL 4.1 and will reply back.  I assume since madwifi says the card isn't supported yet, I don't expect it to work out of box.  I'd like to expect it:-)

The Xandros is fine, and all my media plays.  I added an extra repo or two to get Gimp, Opera, Wine.  MS office works great.

I just like to tinker.

In /opt/bootlocal.sh
rmmod ath_pci ath_rate_sample wlan ath_hal

I would imagine that eee would run with any 2.6 kernel based system. But saying that does not help with the issue at hand, does it.

After adding those things to /opt/bootlocal.sh, saving my config, and rebooting

results of ndiswrapper in command line, root:

ndiswrapper -i /path/net5211.inf

ndiswrapper -l
net5211 driver installed, hardware present

ndiswrapper -m
modprobe config already contains alias directive

and so I assume the blacklist didn't take or is something else going on?
