[nico2710]

Okey guys, im fucking fed up with Linpus...In other words Linux is nothing for me(yeah its a good os but nothing for me), the limitasions is driving me crazy.

How can i remove it and install XP??

BTW: Remember this is my oppinion, it is better than XP in many ways, so its not bas but just nothing for me.

[tigregooner]

is it possible to put windows on a aspire?

i would like to have both

linux and windows

[john1230]

Sure you could that.

I use only Ubuntu-EEE on my Aspire, but the hard disk is big enough to contain multiple operating systems.

what's the messaging software?

C'est quoi le soft de messagerie instantané

[brainkillaKG]

I believe I've read somewhere it is a custom programme, although I would say it is customised - some older version of Pidgin/Gaim rebranded...

[Kev50027]

Nice how the interface is in English and the guy is presenting it in French. C'est fantastique!

[Lam1ngton]

Why oh why do they have to put an XP windeco on it ?

[pokettosnorlax]

probably to make it 'friendly' for linux newbies but i agree it looks horrible...

[mipmipmipmipmip]

interface looks ok, but what about updating, is it debian-based with apt-get?

[gomemdesoto]

It's RPM rather than Debian, Linpus is based on a fork of Fedora 8.

Found the updating was rather broken and buggy, plus a lot of dependency problems as well when trying to install additional software.

After a few weeks of frustration, I junked Linpus and went with Ubuntu netbook remix on my Acer One. Things are much more reliable and work as they should.
