Just wondering.

Do any of you guys use bluetooth dongles with the Asus EEE running on Linux?

What kind of bluetooth dongle brands and models are supported?

Thanks!

your fren dont like it ar? how much u got it for

yeap agreed but anyway enjoy your 2gb eee pc
i am onli using my spare 1gb ram 

But the thing IS running normal notebook RAM right now, it's using cheap easily available parts how else you think they can make it so cheap?

And it already gets toasty as it is, it doesn't exactly run cool.

Hey, you guys got the white or black one?

yup
thats y convert to xp

my eeepc was sent to service center after few days of using it, my SSD seems got some problem, cannot boot into the OS. And i broke my warranty seal to install 2gb RAM. but still it is under warranty.

ASUS Computer International ("ASUS") recently received feedback from one of its valued customers with questions concerning the purpose of a seal stating, "Warranty Void If Removed" over the access door to the single SODIMM slot on some models of the ASUS Eee PC. ASUS wishes to assure its customers that merely breaking or removing this kind of seal will not void the ASUS Limited Warranty. Although ASUS recommends that customers use ASUS-approved service facilities and components, ASUS is committed to honoring the terms of its Limited Warranty and making sure that its customers are free to make appropriate hardware and software modifications and upgrades, regardless of whether the service is performed by an approved facility, a non-approved service provider, or by the customers themselves. ASUS will replace the warranty label with a label to warn users that ASUS will not be responsible for the damage caused by improper hardware change. ASUS is taking steps to make sure that the seals in question are no longer used in its products that are intended to be sold in any country where these stickers are not permitted.

Ok, my eeePC runs WinXP very well right now.

The main reason I did the upgrade to 2GB is not for performance issues, but rather because with more RAM it means that I can turn off the paging file and reduce wear on the SSD.

I tried to move the paging file and the temporary internet files to the SD card but... the pity is that my 2GB SanDIsk Extreme card just isn't fast enough to handle it. The system slows to a crawl when the temporary internet files are stored there.

Wonder if a class 6 SDHC card makes a difference or not?

Just brought a A-Data 8G Class 6 SD Card in RM208 from PC Fair.

Work like charm and even faster than my flash drive....hehe

anyone have problems with the webcam under xp?

i have re-installed xp three times, and all three got problem with the webcam.

question - when i install windows, i need to set the installation in the bios to install ke?

mine have problem until i switch back my installation start to end in the bios

iRonTech : don't put the page file on a RAM disk, it's redundant that way since the page file is only used when there's not enough RAM and the only thing you're doing with that is taking RAM away from the system

it is clocked at 600mhz, you need to update bios to make it run at full speed 900mhz..

but update bios has some risk, some updates failed and cannot boot up

i had try the 8804 ROM which has BIOS option for change the FSB from 70 to 100. But the problem is, the Wave-out.....the screen display has wave....Unable to change the refresh rate which fixed on 60Hz...

Alot problem use that BIOS too. Such as fail to load the driver like Display, audio, wifi and more. But able to solve it by uninstall the ACPI and reinstall back. (recommend format again to get a complete problem free) But the Wave still there.

yup operating at 600 mhz... still running the 0204 bios...

yeah saw that already... sounds too complicated for me to do by myself... besides i only use my eeepc for surfing and msn hehehehehehe... so 600 is more than enough...

yes.. however, you cant uninstall the update later if something goes wrong because of the update.

can i know why u all get eee pc rather than a notebook

Use internal SSD, average speed around 24-26mb/s

Use FlashDrive, Average speed around 6-12mb/s

Use Normal SD card (<2G), Average speed around 4-10mb/s

Use 8G SDHC Class6, Average speed around 15-16.8mb/s

Use Highspeed 2G MiniSD + Adapter, Average speed around 12-14mb/s

Use High speed flash drive (ie Corsair Yoyager GT Series), Average speed around 16-20mb/s (Cost a bomb)

Use The A-Data 8G SDHC Class 6 for my Eee. Save movie (rmvb, avi, wmv) and music (mp3) inside, no lagging.
About the software.....i didn't install inside the SDHC

You can just install it ler.. have to tweak. Mine boots pretty quick.. 30sec thereabout.
Installation size nlite'd including a bunch of apps --> 1.13gb which means got more space to add more crap compared with the default xandros

Yeah... using nlite

Anyway... just added another couple extra megs due to adding back chinese support.
