Stupid Little Laptop

Category: , , By Matt Cronin
So the Asus EeePC plays nice with the wireless access points at school. While that may not sound impressive, getting wireless to work on Linux can be about as fun as smashing your thumb with a hammer. Now for the frustrating part, it won't mount any of the network share points. We have afp, nfs, and windows sharing protocols. I can get these share points to mount on Macs, Windows, and Ubuntu Linux, but so far, no joy on the Asus variant of Xandros. I thought about installing Ubuntu on the laptop, but then I'll probably run into wireless headaches and issues with the OS writing to a solid-state hard drive. Who said tech wasn't fun.
