Just to toot the horns of some of the people I work with (and certainly
not my own, since I had nothing whatsoever to do with the matter), a few
of the Fedora hackers inside Red Hat actually did quite a bit of kernel
work upstream to get Linux kernel driver support for these units.  I
don't know if they have 100% coverage for all the eeePCs but it's
certainly a lot farther along than it would have been otherwise.
