When 8.04.1 is released we should have a neat feature page. But we need someone to do the job. Do you have basic HTML and javascript knowhow, please consider contributing some of you time. The job is mainly about stealing the sleek Ubuntu feature page and changing it to be running an Eee. I hope Ubuntu won’t mind in the spirit of open source: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/804features/
We need your help, not only if you’re a coding geek. Please give me a comment about what’s great about Ubuntu Eee? Please take a look at this post and take that into consideration.
My ideas
- that we’re using the easy and good looking Netbook Remix interface
- Firefox 3 and it’s great features
- that it works seamlessly with Windows and Apple machines
- OpenOffice – the full office suite
- Possible to connect to the internet though you phone
- All the available software. Free and high quality. Upgrades all drivers and software in one click
But as I said, we need your feedback on what we should advertise

well, First off, I’d like to thank all the very nice people for making this remix……over all the experience so far has been mostly positive, with just a few bugs…I had to run the install program three times before it seemed to be working properly…I did get one or two odd errors (“can’t write system files to disk” was one )…once the OS was installed, onto a dual boot 1000ha that had xp on one partition already, everything worked except the wireless, which seemed to struggle to log on to my wireless router sitting four feet away…once connected, it did not work at all. I followed some of the suggestions on line and installed wicd and removed network manager, and now everything seems to work just great……maybe not quite as responsive as I’d like, but no slouch either..looking forward to working with it a lot!!!
Thanx again…
